It'd be hard to put it all, but ill put a few parts of it that are cool...
[Intro]
A string: -0-3-7-12-7-3- (four x) -0-5-9-12-9-5- (four x)
- play the indicated patterns tapping on the A string: use the 1st
and 4th fingers for the notes on frets 3 & 7 and 5 & 9 and tap the
note on the 12th fret with the right hand finger....
Play same exact pattern as before on the D string but end with the tapped note
(youll have to listen to it to get the jist...)
G str: -0-3-7-
end with th

this lick is a fretboard pattern that is the same on each string down the
neck.. tap the notes on the 12th fret and pull off the rest.. work your way
from the high E string down to the A string..

listen to it for tempo... at each f# played on the low E string, play it in
eighth notes until the next chord.... the \ denotes a slide.... this carries
you into the main theme to the song which is based on the A chord .....dont
have time to put it in but see if u can figure it out... it uses pulloffs
at the 5th fret of G str first time and pull offs from 3rd fret to open on the
A str when it kicks in.... have fun.. Rob

(I've deliberately left out hammer/pull notation because they are too
obtrusive in such numbers. I've given an example of what to do)
