Symptom tab?

Has anyone ever seen a tab for Symptom of the Universe as played by Brad on Speak of the Devil? I've got a tab of Sabbath's version and I'm just too lazy to work out Brad's version by ear.

I'm also wondering if there was ever a tab book put out for that record? I love Brad's playing on Sabbath Bloody Sabbath as well. I'd like to work out a version similar to that without all the whammy stuff...

Thank you for that, but I was actually wanting the solo part of the song... I've been able to work out the differences between Brad's and Tony's version for the rythm and the breaks... thanks anyway, though.
