O.K this is an easy basis for the song. It's my first tab, so if
there's any mistakes, then tell me and i'll corrrect them. I'll only
tab the first half of the song, which is the same as the single (i think),
because it will take me far too long to tab the 4 minute solo. There
are lots of fills in the song and you will probably have to listen hard
to the  recording to get the timing right. If you can't play the fills,
then don't even attempt the solo, when I post it.

Enjoy...

Capo 2nd fret = tabbed as 2nd fret is 0, third fret is 1,etc

Mad Lizzy crumbs, blind cobblers, were a sight to behold,

pants off when she phoned.
Left her cap by the sink, it's not what you think, oh take me home.

blue velvet star sky not a sound.

There's a little bass solo, which is then followed by one of the best
solo's i've ever heard. If you haven't got the album vesion - get it.
Squire now goes mental and some parts are un-tabable, but with hard work
you'll probably be able to work some of it out. The chords over the solo
are the same used throughout the song...pretty much!

I will tab the bass solo and the huge guitar solo on a separate submision
