I think this song won a grammy award for an instrumental category but I am not too sure. I do not know what guitar modes or pedals Summers used to get that eerie guitar sound but it sure sounds cool. Anyway, the major riffs (the only riffs) are: (oh yeah, you have to drop the lower E string to D, hence drop D-tuning) E ---------------|---------------|-10----------------|---------------| B -----7h8-------|-----7h8-------|-----12------------|-----7h8-------| G -5-8-----------|-5-8-----------|-------------------|-5-8-----------| D ---------------|---------------|-------------------|---------------| A ---------------|---------------|-------------------|---------------| D ---------------|---------------|---------12--0-----|---------------| E ---------------|-10----------------|---------------|---------------| B -----7h8-------|-----12------------|---------------|-----7h8-------| G -5-8-----------|-------------------|---------------|-5-8-----------| D ---------------|-------------------|---------------|---------------| A ---------------|-------------------|---------------|---------------| D ---------------|---------12--0-----|-5-------------|---------------| E ---------------|-10----------------|---------------|---------------| B -----7h8-------|-----12------------|---------------|---------------| G -5-8-----------|-------------------|---------------|---------------| D ---------------|-------------------|---------------|---------------| A ---------------|-------------------|---------------|-3-------------| D ---------------|---------12--0-----|-5-------------|---------------| and so on... You should make sure that each note is lengthened (I think that is called tremolo) The bass notes are just C to D, then G. I am guessing that the chords (if there is a keyboard playing throughout the song, and I am pretty sure there is) are Cm to Dm to Gm. And that is it. www.TAB6.com
