NOTE**** PLEASE LISTEN TO SALIVAL the first time you follow this tab....to see where I was coming from....**

  The time stamps on this song are based on the Aenima version....but some of the things JC was doing....
I tabbed from live stuff and the Salival version song. The Aenima version has at least 2 if not 3 Multi Layered Bass
tracks....so it was too difficult to extract some stuff. ALOT of this came from the Salival version
because its much easier to hear Justin. So if you can't hear some of the stuff I have tabbed....pop in the
live one and you'll hear it. this is one of my favorite Tool songs. Play this one with lots of emotion. Its GReat.
This is a lot more accurate than the first one I posted. Thanks to MOB_KING for pointing out the opening part (h5p0h5)..
he told me he heard more than just the G (5)....I watched a vid and Justin is doing the quick hammer/pull-off/hammer thing.
Enjoy!

(4:05) Again I think these are palm mutes...not regular ones. Its VERY hard to hear
       them on the album version....but if you listen to the live Salival version...
       you can hear them ALOT better....
