  -- rhythm guitar & bass tab/"arr." by tcg, 198?, 1994
  -- 4/4 // key of Em // Slowly

       nice, too--or just face amp into blowing fan [kiddin'])

. : staccato (cut short--first Em chord)
* : slight bend [my own "add"?--as may be "2->4" slide in 1st measure]
% : eighth-note rest
r : "return" of bend
====: hold tone thru count (legato arpeggio)
^^^^: occasional variations at this point (see--uh, hear--recording)

________
LEAD . . . woulda taken me days--but it's a good song for improv., great
    for practicing the DORIAN mode, in fact (scale: e-f#-g-a-b-c#-d-e; 
    actually a D major scale starting on the 2nd step [Em = ii in D]).
    One characteristic "sound" of the Dorian can be achieved by
    playing the *notes* of the D major chord (d-f#-a) over the Em chord
    _per_se_. For instance, try playing f#-d-f#-d-f#-d(-e) over the 1st 
    measure (Em)--a common pattern-formula found in lots of famous leads
    (e.g., "Oye Como Va").
