As with all of the Coverdale/Page songs I've posted, repeat the phrases as necessary. There is lots of room to experiment with the leads in this song if you have more than one guitar playing. Stuff just started falling together while I was listening to it last night. Enjoy...

Just before the solo in the middle of the song, the progression changes from the Am F G to Am G F . It's a small change, but very noticable. It changes back to the Am F G right at the end of the solo. Solo: I'll start the solo from where the common lead lick starts to change. For a few seconds, two guitars will be playing. This probably isn't exactly right either, so if anyone wants to post corrections....

Special thanks to Edmund Breslin for giving me the accurate intro. Hope you like it... M Holladay +++++++++++++++++++ holladay@engin.umich.edu BTW - if anyone knows anything of any of the songs on the album that I haven't posted yet, send what you know to me, even if it is just the chord progressions. I'd like to eventually see the entire album posted. 4 down, 7 to go... -----------------
