Not fully understanding it but getting there. About 2 min to try and sound out the Iron Man intro. Sounds sweet, didn't know my fingers can make such noise. =]
If you can post a video of what you can do.

that dive-bomb style intro to iron man is played by pressing the E (the heavy 6th) string above the first fret, just under where the string wraps around the peg, pluck the E string and gradually release it to get that warped sound. if you play your amp really loud you could even get it to feedback like tony iommi
btw, i've played guitar since i was 9, played in a few bands since and play bass, drums and keys. now, i just play at church when i can. best advice in order: learn chords, learn scales, then learn a little music theory (for when you wanna start writing your own stuff).
and every musician's friend are his/her ears. try to learn stuff by ear by sitting in front of a radio and just jamming along.
gl with the music!
