[play riff here] [repeat intro chords until done] I found a transcription of this song at Nevada, but it needed a capo. My version doesn't. Also, my intro riff transcription is different.

(play INTRO Tab, then verse progression twice to close) ---- That 'A/C#bass' chord is played like this: x4222x , or add the 'A' bass note, like so: 54222x. Also, leading into the chorus, try a variation of opening up the treble strings, like this: 542000. Cool song -- hope you like my arrangement! J Smith Sunnyvale, CA
