Notes-This tab isnt perfect but I tried.  I put the timings in on most of the
parts because some are hard to hear and many sound similar to each other.  Sorry
I didn't tab the solos.  They are both on the Eb Minor Pentatonic scale.  The
first is just screwing around with the whammy bar, and the second is just some
sequencing on the higher strings, then an ascending run, and then a quick
turnaround to finish it, so its really not that hard to improv something.
