"DAY BY DAY"  BY THE HOOTERS  FROM THE ALBUM NERVOUS NIGHT

I tried to include complete tab, but you'll have to listen to the
CD to get the timing, and come up with your own version of the
keyboard/mandolin intro. If you are not on the mailing list for
Satellite (the Hooters unofficial newsletter) and would like to be added, just drop me a line.  Good luck!

Intro:  Synth. arranged for guitar

Rhythm plays chorus part, lead plays solo:

 bend                         slide
-5-5-5-5----------------------------------------------------------
-5-5-5-5-5-3-5----------------------------------------------------

                                        bend      harmonic

-0-2-4-0-2-4-0-2-4-0-2-4-------4---2----------7------------|

Then repeat chorus several times, there is a cool fill after the
"I can't stand anticipation..ooh" as follows:

          bend    bend    bend
