Some comments first:
- This is not tabbed just like John plays it.
I tabbed it just by listening to the studio version an realised later that
John plays it otherwise. I'm just too lazy to change it. Sorry.
Yet it sounds pretty much the same. If it bothers you much try watching the
video andplay the notes on the other strings.
- I'm not sure about the 'Outro' chords. Nor about the rhythm.
I don't really think John plays chords, but single notes.
It's hard to make out with all the distortion on top of it. Or mabye i just
got lazy again. But it doesn't sound (too) bad.
- Also, i can't make out the solo. I'm still trying.
Will update ASAP.
- Finally the song isn't over after the 2nd 'Outro' Therefore the empty bar.
But i can't get what comes afterwards clearly (When John sings "What puts a
hundred thousand children in the sand..."
- Comments? Corrections? Suggestions? The right tab for the solo (STUDIO
version)?? please send it to ismael-neiva@hotmail.com.
