What a funky track! There's 2 acoustic guitars in this track. Guitar 1 provides 
the main guitar parts for the track and has a  
Capo on the 2nd fret. Guitar 2 
has a small lead part at the beginning over the intro and verse 1 and provides 
a more thickened last Chorus with staccatoed chords.  
Enjoy!

I found a power on a dusty shelf  
Hey! the languages I learned 
Now I'm so powerful I hurt myself  
I hurt myself  
I feel kind of limbic brain 
Like the library of an astronaut 
Found hidden in a pyramid  
Shadowing a body of thought
