(?)=note that was hit, and held until here. In come cases, held
    and slid from.

I like this song. It's lots of fun to play, and has lots of room for
adlibbing, since it's all built around bar chords. There is a TON of
subtle stuff in this song, so if you like to play it different, be my
guest. That's where good music comes from!

Ok, the intro.

Repeated twice during intro.


**********
Verse Riff
**********

Note the timing. notes are occationally set one off for a reason, such as
the anticipated note on the 3rd fret of the A string in the first measure.
this note is hit just before the '&', as you can hear in the song.

I've been enlightened as to the proper way to play the verse to this song
Thanks to Steve H. for showing me the right way to play this.

"We were not yet lovers.."

This is pretty much the same during all the verses, with slides here and
there as usuall.


******
Chorus
******

Well, I think it's the chorus, that or the Bridge. In any case,
This is as accurate as I can get this without a sequencer. It sounds ok,
so no worries. He's probably played it like this at some point anyway :)

It then returns to the Verse Riff. Those are all the big riffs in the song.
The section during the violin solo is a derivative of the pre-chorus/bridge
riff , but basically the same thing. It works fine to just play that section
over and over with slides here and there. That's what I do.

Have a good time with this one!
