Weird noise, whammy bar way:
Just hit the open high E string and lower your whammy bar
three semitones to the C# note. I'm not really sure how
to tab it. W means lower the whammy bar:
"...and I feel fine"

Weird noise, non-whammy bar way:
If you don't have a whammy bar and want to make that noise,
simply pre-bend and then gradually lower the bend:
"...and I feel fine"
