I know that there are some good versions on this song, I´ve just 
tried to make it easier to understand. I have moved the Chorus riff
down one string...I think it´s easier to play that way. The Interlude
I have moved up one string. There is also what appears to be a 
talk-box guitar in the background during the whole song...but it was 
kind of hard to tab out.
