SO CONFUSED!
^Repeating this part is weird, because on the second time through, they play the end of that
second measure rushed & off time. It sounds sloppy, but both tracks do that, so it seems as
if that's how it was meant to be. (I tabbed it on-time, and you can rush/sloppy-
it-up if you wish)

^
In the third measure, one track does a good harmonic while the other
track completely misses it (it sounds like a palmmuted open B)
1:39 - For the rest of the song, the two guitars play the exact same thing.
So, i'll only have a "Guitar 1" tabbed.
