                               Ode To Clarissa

This tab is correct. If you listen to the song closely, there is
either a lead guitar playing with the rhythm or the chords are
played the way I have them written here. If you want to play with
two guitars, simply take the chords from the intro and chorus and
verse fill and have gtr 1 play the powerchords and gtr 2 play the
lead fills written at the end of the tab as well as the solo.

Tuning: C F Bb Eb G c
If in standard, move all numbers down 4 (i.e. solo
would be played at 10th and 12th frets in standard)
