Well, I sat down last night and spent a good few hours with just me, my
Washburn, a pad of paper and the CD player and transcribed this mother
as best as I could. What follows is just the intro, about 11 seconds of
the song. The rest is very similar so faking it with a little bit of improv
should get you through the song. The basic chord progression is Em-B-Bm-A.
The position for these chords are at the end of this message.

The solo for this song is in D pentatonic in the 10th position. I was too
damn lazy to figure it out AND write it down. Maybe later!
