Intro: (clean) I think this is played on a 12-string but it sounds OK     like this.

Riff G: this part has a lead which I've tabbed above the rhythm part.
    The lead part may appear a little scrunched up but listen to
    the CD for the correct timing.

Riff I: this is the trumpet part arranged for guitar. I play this
    using just the single notes but you could add the octave on
    if you want a slightly more robust sound.

Solo: this took about 7 hours! The mega fast runs aren't exact
   (good enough to get you by though) but all the melodic parts
   are correct I think. To save space I've had to omit spaces
   between notes in the fast parts.
