There\'s a lot to practice here so break it into sections so you don\'t get too disheartened. Personally I find this extremely difficult and expect most people who try it will find it at least hard to start with.
The instructions for which finger/thumbs are provided for the right handed player and are only a rough guide. If you are left-handed switch instructions for right and left. I make no appologies for recommending the use of you right hand thumbs, they make life much easier when you are used to it. Keep your thumb nails short and tap so that the inside edge of the tip of the thumb is more or less parallel to the strings - this way you are less likely to sound adjacent strings by accident. Persist with this it will get much easier! When you\'re used to it you may want to try some of the right hand triads marked 1,2,3 using T,1,2 instead. When you crack this try it using the opposite hands, it\'s still hell but it\'s no harder.

T = thumb, 1= 1st finger etc... 4 = little finger

To make things clearer I have marked left hand fingered notes below and right hand ones above. This will be clearer when you examine the tab.

If you loose volume at the treble end you may want to check my posting on optimising your equipment for tapping.
