The slide down at the end is actually 
done with the warp function on a 
Boss Space Echo. If you don't have 
one you can try diving for yr delay 
pedal and modulating by hand or just 
slide down the strings as shown 

 



Kele 


Nothing for the verses so that's nice and easy

I think he sort of tremolo picks these slides a bit but it might just be the  
sustain of whatever distortion he's using
