TEENAGE KICKS

NOTES: The song opens with the drums, so the guitar part starts from the
second bar. I've writen the chords in TAB, and the time values
(rhythem) above the tab. The song is quite easy to play.
I haven't transcribed the solos but the 
D#D# blues scale should do
for both. Distortion is essential.

Notes: This the solo at the end of the track, really easy just two bends,
repeat until the end. The first little part is the rhythm part I play it
to keep time though not essential...
