Year Of The Boomerang

Transcribed by Chris Townsend  (psychic_pup@hotmail.com)

Here's all the main riffs I can think off.
Use them in whatever order they appear.
I'm not sure about any of this since I've never seen the song being played
by the band.

Dropped D tuning

X= Strike Muted Strings (D=Down stroke,U=Up Stroke)
h= harmonic
h/o = hammer on
p/o = pull off

1)Main riff.  Use Neck Pickup.

                   h/o

                                                             The sistas are..

3)Whammy Bit.
  Set Whammy on Double Octave Up. Use neck pickup, and adjust Volume to about
  half way to eliminate the unwanted Noise caused by the delightful Whammy Pedal

6)I cant describe the final "go crazy on the whammy pedal" bit other than
  use the whammy on double octave up setting, pick really fast and hard and
  end it on a couple of bends.
