Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
Right. I decided it was time to fix this tab, it was a bit of a mess. Sorry. :) 
With Faith No More's "The Very Best Definitive Ultimate Greatest Hits Collection" out now,
I figured people might need a better tab than the last one I had up here. 
Neck pickup sounds best, maybe with the tone dialed down a little and with lots of fuzz. 
Improvise as much as you want, and think funky thoughts :) 
So here goes, starting at the beginning: 

Main riff: 
Starts between 1st and 2nd beat - about 1/2?
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------xx----------------------------------------------------| x4
D|---7b8r7p5-7p5-----5-xx--7b8r7p5-7p5-----5-----------repeat--------------|
A|--------------7p5-7--xx-------------7p5-7----------------------------------|
E|-0-------------------xx0---------------------------------------------------|

Then the guitar and keyboard swap riffs for awhile, so the keys start playing that ^^, 
and the guitar plays this little harmonised riff: 
Verse riff: 
Again starts a half beat or so late
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| x4
D|-11h12-11p9-11---11h12-11p9-----11h12-11p9-11--11h12-11h12----repeat-----|
A|----------------------------10---------------------------------------------|
E|------------------------------0----------------------------0---------------|

Chorus (kinda):
Now during this part there isn't actually any guitar, but you can just play: 
B5 (e7|a9|d9) x8 
C5 (e8|a10|d10) x4 
D5 (e10|a12|d12) x4 

As above, during the "Hallelujah ..." bit there's no guitar, but if you improvise something
funky around a G chord it sounds good. 

Then there's the bridge part before the solo:  
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| x4
D|-12p10-12-12p10-12-12p10-12p10----------------------10--10---repeat------|
A|------------------------------12-9x3-10x3-11x3-12x3---12--12---------------|
E|10-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
*The "x3" means play the note three times - it's easier than writing it out :)

OK, so put together it looks like this: 

Main riff x4 
Harmonised riff x4 
Chorus x1 
Main riff x1 
Chorus x1  
Main riff x2 
"Hallelujah" part x4 
Main riff x2 
Harmonised riff x2 
"Hallelujah" part x4 
Bridge x4 
Jam solo (no I'm not tabbing it for you. Improvise!) 
During the solo, it goes through the chorus progresssion again: 
Main riff x2 
Chorus x1 
Main riff x1 
Chorus x1 
Main riff x1 
And so on.  

| /  slide up
| \  slide down
| h  hammer-on
| p  pull-off
| ~  vibrato
| +  harmonic
| x  Mute note


So that should be somewhat less CRAP than the last tab I did. Enjoy.
