Tuning:
This is a truly great song, by what I personally feel is one of the greatest bands of the 80s who don't get enough credit for their work. It is a nice simple dream pop song with several solos which aren't difficult at all. The solos can really be formed how you see fit, or even improvised on the G major scale, I prefer to play it all on the B string, but y'know each to his own. The notes below are as close as possible, that could figure out, to the original. Opening Chord is a D5 on an electric then accompanied by an open Dmaj chord on an acoustic Then it is pretty much these chords throughout the song: Gmaj, Dmaj, Amin Intro Solo: E|------------------------------| B|--12--12--10\8--7--8v----8h10-| G|------------------------------| D|------------------------------| A|------------------------------| E|------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------| B|--12--12--10\8--7--8--7h8--8--7h8--------| G|-----------------------------------------| D|-----------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------| B|--12--12--10\8--7--8--7h8--8--7h8/10--| G|--------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------| E|--------------------------------------| E|-----------------------| B|--12--12--13p12--10\8--| G|-----------------------| D|-----------------------| A|-----------------------| E|-----------------------| Chorus:
