This song is one of the easier ones to play, although there is some hand co
- ordination needed for the verse parts and solo. Most chords can be played
open, although some parts sound better if you use them higher up on the
neck(I personally use open chords for the intro and verse, and I use barre
chords for the chorus and solo). If you have any questions or comments, you
can e-mail me at 103040.505@compuserve.com.

[Intro]
The intro is played using 4 chord positions with slight variations
in the strings played and the order. You can get through it with
just playing the straight chords. The pattern of the chords is:
B/E B5 A C
[Verse]
The verse is fairly simple if you know the pattern. It is simply
playing single notes, it is not too difficult.

[Solo]
The solo is difficult to tab, since there are a lot of chords that
are hard to hear (I have a feeling there are some bass chords used
here as well) so I have tried to tab it as much as possible.
