Tuning: Drop D (e B G D A D)

this should be about 99% correct.  I worked hard on this, and this is the way Lion plays it.

guitar 1 part:

B|------------------------------------------------|
G|-/7~--/7--9-10----------------------------------|
D|---------------7-8------------------------------|
A|------------------------------------------------|
D|------------------------------------------------|
guitar 2 part:
e|-------------------(I don't know the guitar soloing for this part, sorry---|
B|------/10-12-13------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----------------10-11------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

I don't know the exact guitar solo, but go up and down the pentatonic scale starting on 
15th fret of the lowest string, and you'll get something like it.  (Remember you're in 
D though.)

Repeat the verse as you did it the second time, except hold out the 5th to last chord.
