A augmentedA lost 80's classic that rocks very very hard. Here's the intro:
---------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------2--8--2--6--2--8--2--6--2--8--2--6--2--8--2-6-
---------2-------2--7--2--5--2--7--2--5--2--7--2--5--2--7--2-5-
-3-2-0-----------2--5--2--3--2--5--2--3--2--5--2--3--2--5--2-3-
-------3---3-2-------------------------------------------------
---------------3-----------------------------------------------
And here's the verse. This is played through most of the song:
----------------------------------------
-2---8--8--6---5---2---8--8--6---2------
-2---7--7--5---5---2---7--7--5---2------
-2---5--5--3---5---2---5--5--3---2------
---------------3------------------------

Here's the pre-chorus. Mute the power chords a little:
------------------------------------------------------------------

And now for the fun part: The solo! Precede it with a few A augmentedA chords, then
Play this:

The solo goes straight back into the verse, then the prechorus, and then
The verse again. To wrap up the song, play the verse riff 1 3/4 times
(listen to the album to get the timing right), play the opening little
intro riff, slam an A augmentedA chord, scream "Thank you!" at the top of your lungs,
and you're done!
Rock on...
