HUM

KEY
'= bend up
,= bend down
Xx= mute
/   =slide

I didn't transcribe this strum-for-strum, (i'm not that patient) so use your
ear for the rythm


intro begins with the verse riff dubbed backwards(and in clean tone) but live
Hum plays the following riff(which is just the verse riff played backwards
anyway) with flanger and sometimes delay effects
intro riff    (intro riff tip: it helps to play this part with up-down,
constant rythm)
    (Bb)                (F)                (G)  (Ab)      (D)                 
E--8--8--8--8--/-3-3-3-3-3--/--5---6-6-6----------------------         
B--8--8--8--8--/-3-3-3-3-3--/--5---6-6-6----O---O--O-O---   
G-10-10-10-10-/--5-5-5-5-5--/--7---7-7-7----5---5--5-5---   
D-10-10-10-10-/--5-5-5-5-5--/--7---6-6-6----O---O--O-O---                     
A--8--8--8--8-/--3-3-3-3-3--/--5---6-6-6----7---7--7-7----                    
D--8--8--8--8-/--3-3-3-3-3--/--5-/-6-6-6----O---O--O-O---                     

okay the last bit before the distortion kicks in is Tim
playing the Bb chord and that high pitch sound in the 
background seems to be Matt doing some sort of pick 
scr*pe/slide by the pickups with the distortion and effects 
pedals on (experiment, you'll get it)

play verse riff over and over again
except last time go to chorus riff instead of *(Bb)

play chorus riff twice then go back to the verse riff then back to the 
chorus riff for the "she had the widest, bright ideas that all the..."
then after that chorus go to the interlude.

D---10-10-/-12-12-X--------8888/5555/3333------------
play a few times then play only the Bb, G, F chord progression

pre-solo  = this is what Tim does while Matt plays with feedback
tip= strum the open D while rythmicly bending the other notes
  (D) 
E-----------------------
B------10',',---10',',----
G------X',',----X',',----
D--O--7',',-----7',',-----
A--O-----------O------
D--O-----------O-------

the solo is Matt pick scr*ping and sliding rapidly back and forth near the
pickups while coaxing some feedback(it sounds hard to play but all you need is
a lot of volume and distortion)
meanwhile Tim is playing the verse riff(and you may notice that you can hear
him accent the high notes a little better)
then after that play the chorus riff but end it on the C chord and go to outro
