Verse (First Half)


*The organ and guitar solos are over                                                    this, and the bassist on the album does different 
variations of this riff throughout both.

Some of the number of times listed may be off; I am doing this primarily from memory, but 
you can figure it out for yourself, just listen to it a couple of times and you'll get it.
This is a very easy song to play.  The order of the song is a bitch to get down, but once you 
figure it out you can have a lot of fun with this 17-minute long classic.

If you have any problems you can e-mail me at KR4499@netscape.net
