Although quite fast, the chord progressions and main riffs that make up this song are not difficult to learn. Josh Homme (singer / lead guitarist) loves to slide a lot in his lead licks and the band tend to base their songs around repetitive, simple riffs. This song is a typical example...

Verse - This is the main riff in the song. It is just 4 powerchords constantly repeated:

C#5 - G#5 - E5 - G#5

Bridge - Occasionally during the verses this little bridge progression is played to spruce things up:

C#5 - F#5 - E5 - D# - C#

Chorus 1 - This is what the lead guitar plays during the choruses. It's all played on just 2 strings, but you need to alternate notes along the D string as shown in the ActionTab. Here's the basic progression:

F#5 - E major - G#5 - F#5 (repeat)

Chorus 2 - This is what the rhythm guitar plays (underneath the lead guitar) during the choruses. It's very similar to the lead guitar riff, but lower on the fretboard:

F#5 - E5 - G#5 - F#5 (repeat)

Sliding Lead lick - This great little sliding lick is played entirely with 1 finger.

Bridge 2 - Around the sliding lick there is a mini-bridge which is just 4 chords:

C#5 - D#5 - E5 - G#5

Solo - The solo comes at the end of the song and plays out until the end. It starts with the same sliding lick as before, then progresses into a fuller rock solo. At the outro (end of the solo) he breaks into a more rigid style of lead lick to end the song.
