    Superb solo cover, especially as it appeared to be your last song on maybe a newyears eve set list?..blow that tune and you blew the gig I guess. Rather than add my name to the long list of those above asking for tabs, I've just spent several days Tabbing this out from this video on 50% speed. Pretty much nailed all the parts I think, just one section left to do, from 03.50 to 4.00 at the end of the Head bang solo as it runs into the crescendo and final softer outro, as it got a bit blurred there at speed. Got everything else..including a serious headache lol! Thanks for posting this video, all I have to do now is sing over these tabs and hit the open mics lol! Cheers.

      +Night-Vision Productions Thanks for asking, but I worked this all out by ear so I never made any tabs. The beginning part is just regular chords, G Em Am D, etc. There are a couple of weird voicings in the middle part, but if you tell me what part you can't see in my fingering and give me the time counter, I'll give you the fret, and string position for those bits. Other than that, if I was to make a TAB, I'd have to watch the video and write down what I was seeing, just like anyone else!

One time was the first time I saw Elvis Presley do Polk Salad Annie live in Las Vegas, various Springsteen video performances, Prince And The Revolution doing A Love Bizarre and now your fantastic solo acoustic version of this. From one solo artist to another here's a high five and a fist bump. You have a new fan bro and I'm going to post it on my Facebook page. If you get the chance, check out some of my stuff here: czcams.com/users/JimmyDiBattistavideos?sort=p&view=u ..oh yea, and as to the idea I had of trying to learn this song, as we Italians from up north like to say; fuhgeddaboudit
