(Lindsey Buckingham's lead guitar is pretty much all backgroung from this
point on behind Stevie Nicks vocals until the end of the song. I tried to
line the music up with the vocals the best I could. Hope it makes sense.)

Listen to song while reading the tab to see where I went with this before
trying to play the tab. Like I said. I hope it makes sense.

Tabbed from the Fleetwood Mac LP, from the mid 70's
