It looks like there's 3 guitars in this song:Guitar 1 - a clean electric with a capo on the 5th fretGuitar 2 - a distorted electric with dropped-D tuning (DADGBE)Guitar 3 - just your average distorted guitarIt's possible to play the solo with the dropped D (just raise fretnumbers on low E-string by 2) and the verse-chords with a finger-barre, but I can't advise that.. Here goes..NotationXhY     - hammer onXpY     - pull offXbY     - bend at fret X to pitch of fret YXrY     - release bent note at pitch of fret X to pitch of fret YX~~     - vibrato (X)     - ghost noteX/Y X\Y - slides from X up/down to Y(...)   - hold previous noteINTRO/VERSE - Guitar 1, positions relative to capo on 5th fret    D              D7sus4  Gsus4  G      D  ------0----------3-----------------------------------------------  --0h2---0-----0--3-----------3------3----------------------------  --2-----2-----2--2---------2------2----------2--------2----------  --2--------2-----2-------5------4------0h(2)----0h(2)------------  --0--------0---------------------------------------------5p4--0--  -----------------------------------------------------------------PRE-CHORUS - Guitar 2, chord notes implied by vocals & bass  Why you act crazy  Not an act maybe  etc.        D                             F   ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ------5h6p5p3---------------------------------------------  ---------------5h6p5p3------------------------------------  ------------------------5h6p5p3(...)b5(...)r3~~-----------  Count 1        &        2           3      4        E                             D#  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ------5h6p5p3---------------------------------------------  ---------------5h6p5p3------------------------------------  ------------------------5h6p5p3(...)b5(...)r3~~-----------        1        &        2           3      4CHORUS/OUTRO - Guitar 2  I stay away  ----------------------------------------------------------  --3-------------------------------------------------------  --2-------------------------------------------------------  --0--------8--------8---10---12---------------------------  --0--------8--------8---10---12---------------------------  --0--------8--------8---10---12---------------------------SOLO - Guitar 3, enters with short ascending run on the end of       chorus  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  -----------------------------5---5----7b9~~----r7--5---5--  -----------2--3--5---5/7~~-----7---------------------7----  --1--3--5-------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  --5-------------------------------------------------------  -----7--6--5--5--5b6----5---------------------------------  ---------------------------8--5---3h5p3h5p3h5p3h5---x-x---  ----------------------------------------------------------    _____________P.H.____________  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ---/5--3p0h3---------------------5b6---r5-----------------  --------------5p3p0---------------------------------------  ---------------------5p3h5---3~---------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------5--7--------------  ---5--5--5--5--3----------------3--5/7--------------------  ------------------5----5--3--5----------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------     ______P.H.______  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------  --------10----------10-----12b14--12b14r12--10----10------  ---/12-----12-12-12----12----------------------12----12\--  ----------------------------------------------------------  ----------------------------------------------------------Date: Sat, 4 Nov 95 10:04:24 MSTFrom: al457@rgfn.epcc.Edu (Al G.
