Be sure to notice the "Passing Chord" in the "Main Riff". It�s denoted be the "X" above it. After the "Main Riff" play one of the following riffs, depending on where you are in the song. Link Riff #1 ----------------- ---------------- --5p3------------ ---------------- ------3h4-------- Or ---9p7---------- ----------------- --------8h9----- ----------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- Link Riff #2 ----------------- ---------------- --5p3--5p3------- --9p7--9p7------ ----------------- Or ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- ----------------- ---------------- Okay...to get through the entire intro, play the "Intro Section" followed by the "Main Riff". After that, play "Link Riff #1," and then go back into the "Main Riff". After that, play "Link Riff #2," and then go back into the "Main Riff" After that, wait for a bit and play the C7 chord... C7 Chord ---12-- ---11-- ---12-- -------- -------- -------- For the verses, play the "Main Riff" followed by each "Link Riff" in numerical order. Once again, end on the C7 Chord. Now it�s time to tackle Clark�s slide solo. Be sure to throw lots of reverb on it...

Then, go into...

It the following� Quiet/Ending Riff -------------------------- -------------------------- ---7--8--9--10---12------- -------------------------- ---5--6--7---8---10------- -------------------------- After playing the "Climax Riff" a bunch of times, play the "Quiet/Ending Riff" by itself to end the song. It coincides with Todd singing the final "Eyes wide open". That should do it. With the exception of a few pinch harmonics under the "Climax Riff," I think I covered everything�
