You will need to tune your guitar like this to play the song :

D, G, C, F, A, D

Intro

Verse

Watch closely for the small time change. You probably won't really notice it, but it does make a difference.

Chorus

There are some really cool walking notes here for the lead part. Have fun and WORK THOSE SCALES !

Here is what the picked out part sounds like :

Here is what the rhythm part sounds like :

Here they are together :

Solo

For the solo, the lead part is on top, which sounds like this :

The rhythm guitar is on the bottom, and sounds like this :

Here is what they sound like together :

There really isn't too much difficulty in the solo part. You can just use almost any finger, as long as you are able to slide rather easily. This is a great solo lesson in getting to the notes you want to reach and logically figuring out which finger to use. If you need any help with this, just email me and I will post the fingerings. You should be able to let the notes flow rather easily, and for better results, put a little flanger or some other effect on the solo. I didn't because I would rather you hear the actual notes, and not just a pretty sound.
