Sorry this took so long, had to arrange for my brother to get on a computer
and have at it :)  I hope you enjoy it, despite the wait.  This has also been
posted on alt.guitar.tab and rec.music.makers.guitar.tablature.

NOTE: this tab was done by my brother, who has no net.account.  I tried to
edit some of the instructions to be clearer and everything, but I may not
have succeded in all cases :) :)  Apologies if you don't understand parts of
it.  Questions, comments, or requests for more to irsman@iastate.edu and I'll
forward them to him.  - Ian
