The Loner by Gary Moore (Wild Frontier disc)


This a great instrumental. I got lazy at the end and didnt transcribe a 
couple of licks, sorry. Hopefully I didn't brutalize this too much.
Oh, I also left out the keyboard chords in the beginning and end(between
the fills). They sound like variations on G, not too tough to fig out.
Hope it works for you. Any corrections or adds would be appreciated.
