Text File

Tabbed by Gary.Davies - Stratford upon avon warkwickshire - United Kingdom lion@palmbeach.freeserve.co.uk Down in a tube station at midnight, it is difficult to play.! When climbing the riff, either double strike the string or stress the note. You need a pick to play this tune. 31 may 2005 Riff 1 G ||----------------|----------5---7-|----------------|----------5575--| D ||----------5---7-|------7---------|----------5---7-|------7-------7-| A ||------7---------|5---------------|------7---------|5---------------| E ||5---------------|----------------|5---------------|----------------| The distant echo -
