INTRO:

|-----------------|

|-1---1-----------|

AND IT GOES LIKE THIS ONCE AFTER THE GUITAR SOLO:
1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 &

WITH THE MAIN RIFF AGAIN, THEN TRIPELETS:
NOTE: I LIKE TO GIVE `ER A GOOD OCTAVE SLIDE BACK INTO THE MAIN RIFF.
1 X X 3 X X

ROCK & ROLL.
BYE NOW,
