A lost 80's classic that rocks very very hard. Here's the intro:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------2---8---2---6---2---8---2---6---2---8---2---6---2---8---2--6-
---------2-------2---7---2---5---2---7---2---5---2---7---2---5---2---7---2--5-
-3-2-0-----------2---5---2---3---2---5---2---3---2---5---2---3---2---5---2--3-
-------3---3-2----------------------------------------------------------------
---------------3--------------------------------------------------------------
And here's the verse. This is played through most of the song:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-2---8--8--6---5---2---8--8--6---2--------------------------------------------
-2---7--7--5---5---2---7--7--5---2--------------------------------------------
-2---5--5--3---5---2---5--5--3---2--------------------------------------------
---------------3--------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------3b4----------------------------------------
Here's the pre-chorus. Mute the power chords a little:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--------------

And the chorus. This goes right into the verse riff.

And now for the fun part: The solo! Precede it with a few A chords,
then play
this:

hold bend
The solo goes straight back into the verse, then the prechorus, and
then the
verse again. To wrap up the song, play the verse riff 1 3/4 times
(listen to
the album to get the timing right), play the opening little intro
riff, slam
an A chord, scream "Thank you!" at the top of your lungs, and you're
done!
Rock on...
