This version of Barracuda by Heart is closer than those ones already posted on this site. I'm not saying it's 100% accurate but it sounds good to me, and I've been watching them play this for a while. There are three guitars going so I'll put in what I think at least two are playing in certain parts. There's no timing (Lots of weird timings in this song) and the strumming isn't perfect but you can figure it all out by listening to the record.
Also...I was reading an article the other day about this song and it says that Roger Fisher says the last "harmonic fight" thingy (as I call it) well he calls it Alien Attack and he puts his guitar up to his amp or something and comes up with those crazy sounds...
b=bend p=pull s=slide sd=slide down v=vibrato

^slide down using pick
(Chorus again) add harmonics at the 12th fret after she sings "...wick..."
Strum out an E chord over and over.
This part is two electric guitars having a little harmonic fight. You can make it sound good just by playing around with it but here's what I usually tend to play:
-------<12>*--<7>*----------------------------------------------------------
-<7>*--<12>*--<7>*--<7>-<7>-<7>-<7>---------<12>----------------------------
-<7>*--<12>*--<7>*------------------<7>-----<12>---------<12>---------------
-<7>*----------------------------------<7>--<12>--<7>-----------------------
-----------------------------------------------------<7>------<7>-----------
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------<12>------ -----<12>----<12>-----<12>---<12>--------
------------------------------<12>- --15-<12>-14-<12>-----<12>---<12>--------
--------<12>-----<7>--------------- -------------<12>---17----16-<12>--------
-<7>-----------------<7>----------- ----------------------------------------- 2xs
----<7>-----<7>-------------------- -----------------------------------------

Outro: 5xs
