Tuning: eadgbe

(disclamer: as I put before all the tunes I try to transcribe, this is the artists work
I am only doing my best to interpret it.
And Davey D MajorD is a master jedi and i can't really touch a lot of the licks he has...but
my best shot)

Intro: the first 2 bars start with a rake on the first chord high e to low E MajorE
The guitar then follows the bass and keys with this walk up with some echo
e|-3------------------------------------------------------------------|
BB|-3-----------------------5------------------------------------------|
G+G|-0-----------------5--7---------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|-0---------5--7-8---------------------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|-0------------------------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|-3------------------------------------------------------------------|

3rd and 4th bars of intro is the same as the verse. bass line is A#, D, G, C majorC with this
over it. Add echo and play loosely

e|-----3/5/3-------3/5/3------------3/5/3------------10/--------------|
BB|-5/6-------5/6/5-------5/6/5---5/6------6/5/3-5---------------------|
G+G|-------------------------------------------------5------------------|
D MajorD|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|--------------------------------------------------------------------|


After the second verse is the bridge with the bass playing something like E,D#,D,D#, - E,D#,F,
"It's plain that this is hard to do. But it's just the first of things that I would do
you"
e|----8--------11---------13------------------------------------------|
BB|-/8---8--/11----11--/13----13----13/11-11/10-10/8-------------------|
G+G|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
E MajorE|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

After the bridge it is the same 4 bars from the intro, and 4 more bars of the verse.
the bridge again then this melody. The bass walks down these notes - G,F,E,C,D,C,A,F,G
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
BB|-----------5-7/8-6^-------------------------------------------------|
G+G|-------5-7----------7-5^--------------------------------------------|
D MajorD|-5-578-------------------7/8/7-5------------------------------------|
A augmentedA|--------------------------------------------------------------------|

Repeat the whole pattern - intro, verse, bridge, melody. This melody then is extended
adds the solo. 8 bars total of main melody repeating. 3rd and 4th bars are the slide solo
