Tuning: Standard

there are 2 guitars on this song. one is slightly louder
in the right speaker, one is slightly louder in the left
speaker.

  right speaker rhythm gtr:
E--------------------0-------------------0---------0---|
B--------------------0-------------------0---------0---|
G--------------------1-------------------1---------1---|
D--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2---|
A--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-----|
E--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-----|

  left speaker lead gtr:
E----------------------------------------0--------------|
B----------------------------------------0--------------|
G----------------------------------------1--------------|drop w/ whammy bar
D----------------------------------------2--------------|
A----------------------------------------2--------------|
E----------------------------------------0--------------|

right speaker gtr continues droning E chord while
left speaker plays:

E--3-0--------3-0--------3---0-------0---3---3---3----3~--|
B-------3-0--------3-0-----------3---0---------3---3--3~--|
G--------------------------------------------------/--/---|
D--------------------------------------------------/--/---|
A---------------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------------|

right speaker:

E--------------------------------|
B--------------------------------|
G--4-4-6-6-4-4-6-6-4-4----4------|
D--5-5-7-7-5-5-7-7-5-5-5----5----|
A--5-5-7-7-5-5-7-7-5-5---5----5--|
E--3-3-5-5-3-3-5-5-3-3-----------|

E---------8--8-----8-----8------|
B--9-9-9--8----8-----8-----8----|       left gtr just does
G--9-9-9--9------9-----9-----9--| X 3   whammy bar noise during
D--9-9-9-10---------------------|       verse......
A--7-7-7-10---------------------|
E---------8---------------------|

then:

E---------------|
B---------------|
G---------------|
D--5-5-6-6-7-6--| slide up fretboard...
A--5-5-6-6-7-6--| then back into E chord part, like intro.
E--3-3-4-4-5-4--|

the left gtr speaker plays the final G# like this,
then begins sliding rapidly up the fretboard, releasing
into an open E as well:

E--4--
B--4--
G--5--
D--6--
A-----
E-----

it's pretty difficult to work out the "solo" here, so
my suggestion is to seek out "blind eye sees all" and
watch mr. leary with your own eyes...

(also, i can't say for sure, but i think the left and right
guitars are panned back and forth between speakers, so...)

end on G#.......
