[searly]

her you go boys...i find this version is kick ass to jam with a buddy whiloe he plays the dave version.


daves version-intro(howie usually does not include this, but it sounds
really nice if you play it)

this is howies chord progression for the verse...he plays slight
variations of this through out the song...but this is generally the
idea

these are the chords for the chorus...listen for the rhythm

the solo!- basically this improvisation on what dave plays during the
sax solos in the real song. howie plays the basic chord progression
but, again uses different chord voicings.
here aree the chords..the rhythm is not there but..jsut listem to the part
and you should be able to get it. use alot of muting.

you get the idea...just use lots of muting and do a little improv!

I only play it that way live. I use basic chords otherwise. Hate that stretch.

Are you touring now?

hahaha

nice, no, I my band just plays a lot at our school and at colleges. We play at some restaruants/bars, but we gotta be careful when cops are around. In fact, we won battle of the bands and new we play at all the big school assmebles/ 'fest stuff. Cool beans

[Jonny123]

I learned this song playing the third chord as 075780, and still play it that way. It sounds just fine.

[mdel21]

That chord is fine when you do it solo. It gives the song a fuller sound.
