"Amerika" - from Word of Mouth's Live Tour

NOTES:	h=hammer on
	x=harmonics
	g=ghost / muted notes
	f=fretted harmonics
	r=righthanded fretting
	*=sustain / let note ring through
	=slide down

- Runs in the fourth section and at end should be played as stacatto 16ths -
(I put spaces between them to make it easier to read the tabbed "notes")
