Never seen this transcribed before. And now I know why. An epic chordfest, even for a Squeeze song! I've followed several youtube clips of Glenn Tilbrook playing this solo, the best clip being here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_5G2w02p0E I've submitted it under 'Squeeze' as obviously it's a Squeeze song, but in order to mimic the recording you'd need at least a string quartet so this is the arrangement for guitar and vocal, which I've come to love even more than the original Squeeze recording on East Side Story! I've used a mix of tab and chords. Where there is tab, I've placed the notes over the lyrics, to illustrate what to play over the appropriate words as opposed to laying the tab out in strict time The good news - it's in standard tuning The bad news - it's a devil to learn The best news - it's worth it to play such a wonderful piece EADGBE ------ A (x02220@1) x02220 Asus2/F# 2x2200 A/C# x4x2xx C(2) x3x1xx B(2) x2x0xx Eadd2/G# 4X4400
