NOTES: Neil plays this song tuning his guitar to the dropped D tuning (DADGBD)

This is my way to play the song. If you want to have the good sound, you'll

surely have to play the little riffs correct. I haven't tabbed out the solo

because it's actually based on the acoustic "four way street" version.
