None of them
I searched the net for a tab for this song that had Kirk's guitar part,
but couldnt find one that had it all. So I decided to tab it out. It's
as accurate as possible, and I figured alot out from watching "a year
and a half" parts one and two and from watching S&M.
Rythm - Distorted Guitar
Lead - Whip out the wah pedal and crank up the distortion.
Tablature explanation :
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
h = hammer on
p = pull off
fb = full bend (whole step)
fb(r) = full bend and relaese
hb = half bend (half step)
~~~~~~ = vibrato (tremolo or with left hand)
x = Muted string string
Tab is in form - James on top, Kirk below.
Intro : 6x

We're off to never-never land
Note : This tab for the solo is greatly inspired by the original
tab of the solo, and many thanks to the author of that tab. It
Was quite accurate but wrong in a couple of places, basiclly here
I changed it to be as close as possible to Kirk.
For the solo, James plays the main riff twice, then his part of
the prechorus, and his part of the chorus. Its amazing how well
the solo fits in.

===================
For a Big ending while plaing it Live just do this:
|-----------------------------------------|

|---5------4-------4------5------4-----2--|
|---3---0--2---0---2------3------2-----0--|

|---5------4-------4------5------4-----2--|
|---3---0--2---0---2------3------2-----0--|
Those extra spaces are there for a reason :-)
===================
This is as close as one can get. There is a small solo during the
outro, but whenever Kirk plays it live, he just improvises and
messes with the wah. Just play around with one of your scales and
rock the wah. If Kirk doesn't play it the same every time,
I don't think we have to worry about it.
