song QOTSA has ever done in my opinion

Eb,Ab,Db,Gb,Bb,eb
Intro solo (light distortion, low tone and reverb)

well, there it is. pretty good if i do say so myself. the hardest part is distinguishing
hich riff goes where, cause since this is a jam song it gets a little confusing
remembering everything, but listen to it and it will make sense. enjoy
