Megalomaniac (ver. 2)

Standard EADGBA Tuning 
 
Tabbed from the Bonner Springs, Kansas 
Lollapalooza performance. 
 
Key: 
: - let ring 
/ - slide 
h - hammer on 
p - pull off 
 
Loads of other tabs for this great new Incubus song 
are incorrect,so i tabbed a correct version! Download  
the song and u'll work it out:) Enjoy Incubus! 
 
I think Mike uses an effect called a humanizer which mimics vowel sounds 
(like someone speaking). Listen to the song and u'll understand.
