Right after '...just as long as his ship's coming in...'

There are two guitars in this song. The rhythm guitar always plays Part A, except when it
doesn't and instead plays Part D. The lead guitar joins in after the first two measures
and plays Part C and when he's singing Part B. During the chorus the guitars move down a
string for the measure, right after '...just as long as his ship's coming in...'

This is my first tab but it's all you need to get started playing this song, I just
haven't figured out the solo or outro parts yet. The Mission Hill theme song uses Part A
for rhythm and Part C and B for lead, but it's all a lot quicker.

the 3 3's in the main riff, part B, C, and E are played very quickly with an up and down-
stroke.

Listen to the songs to get the struming right because it varies.
