Can't Stand The Paranoia

As promised:

SABOTAGE
One of the few hip-hop songs that make sense in one of these games. Luckily it's one of the easier songs that Harmonix (gasp!) overcharted. Most of the difficulty comes from the bass. They included the record-scratching parts, which can be accomplished my scratching the pick across the top two strings. More specifics as they develop.
It's incredibly simple: G# power chord (466---), mixed with a harmonic on the A string of the 5th fret.

To make a harmonic, light press your finger above the nut on the fifth fret.
As for the solo, these two positions:
E----10^----12^-----
B----13^----15^-----

I THINK I'M PARANOID
Arpeggio: Holding a position on the guitar (chord) and plucking strings in a certain order. Best results for this one: bar the index finger over the B, G, D strings on the 10th fret. bar the ring finger over the 12th fret. Pick as such:
E----------------------------------------------------
B---------12---10-----------------------------10----
G--12-------12-------10---------12-------10------
D------------------------10-h12--------12-----------

That's the main riff, the rest is simple enough.
Except for the Outro:
e|-----------|---------------|----------3-------------------------|
B|-----------|---------------|--------------------------3^3-3-2--|
G|--x---x-x-|-x-------------|-0-3-0-5^-----0-3-0--------------|
D|--5---5-3-|-3-8-----------|------------------------------------|
A|--5---5-3-|-3-8-x8-------|------------------------------------|
E|--3---3-1---1-6-----------|------------------------------------|

Working on the harder songs next, but tomorrow's update = :awesome!
