Keith probably used some wierd tuning and played it completely different!

Once it gets to the break, there's the two chord da Daahh da Daahh stuff... those chords are ------------------ ------7----------- ------7------5h6-- (Do various riffs here) ------7------5---- ---7--5---7--7---- ---5--5---5--5---- The 5'th fret on the D string is a min 7 interval making the major a dominant 7. The 5h6 is a hammer-on (gives it that bluesy feel). [Dan] [--] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Daniel E.
