_______________________________________________________________________________


I didn't include the guitar solo because all the little nuances (bend here,
use slide here, bend-and-release here, etc.) make it a bitch to get into
ASCII notation. It's fairly simple to play if you can get the hang of
using a slide on and off (easier said than done!). I'm not sure if my
"b" and "r" notation is standard, so if you don't understand, feel
free to drop me a line and I will clarify myself.
