C//(Or should I sign it)    D//("Just for You")  Em// D Em///
                                                Stairway to the Stars!

Think I'll write good health to you/We got better things to do

That's it in a nutshell. Of course, you can't have a good BOC song with out awesome Buck
riffs. I'll have to work on those. The solo is in an e pentatonic scale and I don't
most of it. What I like to do, on the other hand, is to get down a few simple riffs, and 
the rest. Here's some solo(Buck Dharma) riffs:

--5p3-5p3-5p3-5p3-5p3-5-7-5-3-0-3     --------------------------------------|
--------------------------------      --------------------------------------|
--------------------------------      --------------------------------------|
--------------------------------      --------------------------------------|
--------------------------------      --------------------------------------|
--------------------------------      --0h3bp0-0h3-0------------------------|

--12-12-12---------------15p12-----------------------------------|      FIANLE!!:
-----------15--12p10-12------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------------|
--------------------------------      ---------------------------|
--------------------------------      ---------------------------|
--------------------------------      ---------------------------|
                                      ---------------------------|
                                      -0-3-0-5-0-6-0-7--5h7p5-3--|
                                      ---------------------------|
                               3Times, and then comes the A chord.

Order: Intro, Verse 6times, Pre-Chorus(Or should I sign it...), Chorus, Verse 4times,
Chorus(Kill them all...) Chorus, Solo, Verse 4times, Pre Chorus, Chorus3times(?)Finale.

Symbols: h=hammer on  p=pull off  .=sticcato(normally seen like this:2.)  /=Downward
/*=Slide up/down (you should be able to tell)

That's all for now. I'll come back later with the complete solo and all those sweet
BD riffs. I tabbed this out of a live version, so if it doesn't match what's on your CD,
GET A NEW CD. No, just kidding. Anyway, Hope You Enjoy it!
