Transcribed by Pat Giles (pgiles@ntl.sympatico.ca)
Standard tuning - low to high - EADGBE
Note: the chords in parentheses (C B Em) are the notes played by the
piano and bass. If you're playing on one guitar only, though,
do this, putting emphasis on the notes with the * beside them (the
bass notes):
G (C B Em)
E:-3---------3---3---3--------|
B:-3---------3---3---3--------|
G:-0---------0---0---0--------|
D:-0---------2---0---0--------|
A:-2---------3*--2*--0--------|
E:-3-----------------0*-------|
Chords:
G: (320033)
C: (X32033)
B: (X20033)
Em:(022000) (during C-B-Em patterns, play it like this): 000033
D: (X00232)
A: (X02233) (I know this isn't a real A; I'm not sure what it's called)

Bridge: okay, I know this is mostly a piano solo, but I'm gonna tab
out a rough version of it for guitar. Note the chords on top;
that's what guitar 1 would play; guitar 2 would play the
'solo' (again, the chords in parentheses are played with
emphasis on the bass notes)
