these two riffs are played and then when he says''i'll be there waiting''
the bass slide like this:


G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-3/7----------------------------------------------------------------------|

B|----0----------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|----0----------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|----0----------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|----14---------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|----15---------------------------------------------------------------------|

the lead just keeps playin the same chord as shown above then when it comes to the
and they are sing ''i come a runin'' the bass starts playin:

G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8-8--10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-|

then repeats but doesnt play 7 and stays on 10
G|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|-10-10--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---------------------------------------------|

caleb plays the same chord,but the lead starts playing:
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
G|-------------12--11------------12--11-------------------------12--11------|
D|--9--7--9------------9--7--9----------9--7--9--12--14--12--9--------------|
A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|

then i dont know what happens in the solo,just mess around on the 12-17 frets on the g
b string,something like that then all the other riffs are repeated and thats all i could
so have fun with it!mark.

Email: groovy_steve@hotmail.co,


First of all, credit must go to marco-butler, touchdown_boy, and the other author who
posted tabs for this song already, their tabs are great, i just picked up a few little
that arn't quite right, and i thought i'd post up a tab that flows a little better too.
Thanks guys, I hope you dont mind me using your tabs.
