Fundamentally Loathsome Key: h = hammer on note p = pull off note s = slide to note r = release bend ^ = hold bend // = slide up to infinity \\ = slide down to infinity ~~ = tremolo This is a close (if not perfect) tab of the solo. This is a little sloppy and I'm not sure of the very beginning, but htis should help you to get an idea of the way it's played. I suggest you listen to the song to help you get the rhythm down.
