This is quite a nice easy song to play. The solo parts aren't too challenging
and the rhythm parts are simple and enjoyable.
Throughout I have written C#5 as (9-11-11) with the root on the E string.
You may choose to play it as (4-4-6-6) with the root on the A string instead.
I hope you enjoy it!
Any questions, comments, errors, remarks, requests etc: *
Tuning: Standard
This song is written for two guitars, a rhythm and a lead.

Intro:
******
n.b play the muted notes (x) as you feel they should be played - i have added them as a
rough guide. Also you may like to strike the power chords a couple of times.
I suggest you listen to the CD carefully to get a good feel for this riff.

Guitar Solo:

First I'll do the Rhythm guitar behind the solo, then the solo itself after that.
Rhythm Guitar: this is a bit sketchy and may be completely wrong!

Solo Guitar:

*-use whammy bar to increase pitch (i guess - i dont have a whammy bar, never used one)

"Under blue skies..."
