Hey, this is ryan here with my second guitar tab. The song is "Seventeen" by
on the album "Head Games" released in 1979. This was their 3rd album which made it to #5 on
Billboard 200 Chart.
This is the intro

This is the verse

The verse (labeled above) is played twice, but when the pre-chorus comes, you play
little riff...

That's all I have for this song. Sorry, but I don't have the Solo or anything, all
have is the main rhythm tracking. Have fun with this one. More tabs will be on the way!!!
