Most of the rest is just variations of these.

Kinda a cheesy version of this but it gets you by:
Solo
E--8--8--12b13--8------------------------------------------
B--8--8-----------10--10b11-6-5-3--3b4-3-3----3-3b4--3-3---

Yet another even worse "just to complete the song" kinda thing goin on:
			  <-X2			  <-X2
E--8---7-----5--5--5---3---|---6--5----3-3-3--1----|-
B--11--10----8--8--8---6---|---9--8----6-6-6--2----|-
G--10--9-----7--7--7---5---|---8--7----5-5-5--3----|-
D--8---7-----5--5--5---0h3-|---6--5----3-3-3--0h1--|-
A--8---7-----5--5--5---0h3-|---6--5----3-3-3--0h1--|-
D--8---7-----5--5--5---0h3-|---6--5----3-3-3--0h1--|-

It's mostly a fingerpick along with a bass playing the low notes.


Tuning Instructions:
Play an open low E(6th string) and an open D(4th)string at the same time.
Lower the E MajorE string until you begin to hear the same tone. To fine tune, play
the low E(now D MajorD) string at the 7th fret and tune it to the open D(4th) string.

First Tab. Hope I didn't chop up a decent song too much. If you add to this or post this
anywhere I would very much appreciate an e-mail. [email protected]
