This is definately not perfect but its the best i can do
the solo is a bit off, as may be the chords at the end of
the chorus
BUT THE INTRO IS PERFECT!!!!!

the intro sounds best when plucked with thumb
the verse format is the same in all three verses and 
the solo is played after the end of the second verse
