One of my favourite covers of all time. I've had the pleasure of seeing both Paolo
and Rodriguez perform this live and I think both bring something pretty cool to
this epic tune. The only only other Paolo Sugar man tab is really for the
Rodriguez version, Paolo adds in a few more (though in his recording the guitar is
up quite a bit louder than in the original so it's a little easier to hear what's being played) .
Tuning = Standard
Open Chords (except the F and Bb)
