Daytrotter Session 5/7/2007
Pitchfork TV Special
Live videos

Standard tuning
Capo 5

This is how they currently play the song. Long riff was stretched out to better explain 
counting.
Try to follow the change between the longer counts and shorter counts.
Also, I got the bass octaves from the Pitchfork video although he plays them in other 
videos, but it is harder to hear.
Just listen to the track for the structure of the song. I recommend the Daytrotter session.
