Very high energy song, very fun to play. Let's start with the opening bass line arranged for guitar: Rhy Fig 1 |------------------------------------| |------------------------------------| |-----------------------------------*| |-----------------------------------*| |--7--7----------------5--7--5-------| |---------5--6--7---7----------------| The rythym figure for what Pete is playing is: E ××9 9 12 12 C ×11 9 10 9 E-C - Rhy Fig 2 Follow Rhy Fig 2 for the 1st verse. Then it goes into A for the pre-chorus (:33), Rhy fig 2 two more times. Then into Rhy fig 3: Ab 466××× A 577××× B 799××× Rhy fig 3 Ab-A-B Then go back to rhy fig 2. Follow Rhy fig 3 outline at 2:44. If you're not playing w/a sax player (referring to the middle break), I'd imagine a nice E min petatonic guitar solo would suffice quite nicely. #----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE---------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the # #song.
