Tuning EADGBe
Here we go, one of the greatest songs I think, anyways, George
does a ton of improvising in this song, and so should you with this;
this song took a long long time to tab. So...I tried putting
every little detail and not but its hard to do since this song
is such a long one. Anyways, it should be pretty correct, please rate!
Intro: Play w/righthand fingers
