Only got through the first part in the time I had last night - I'll probably learn the rest sometime this week and if people let me know they're interested, I'll post that too. Couple of notes - there's a capo at the 3rd fret, which is why the strings at the left of the tab are noted the way they are. So, what I designated as an open string is actually fretted at the 3rd fret by the capo. Secondly, one should use liberal interpretation of the tab - I wasn't too careful in some of the chordal sections about specifying exactly which notes of the chord are hit and which aren't. As always, use tab as a guide, listen to it yourself, and make it sound right!
