Notes:
-4/4 time
-key of A - all guitar solos in A pentatonic minor
-note that any staff marked with an asterisk (*) above it (in the left hand
margin) begins with an eighth rest - this is vital to getting the rhythm
of the guitar solos right (check with the recording)

2ND VERSE: (played same as 1st Verse)
Loved you last night, loved you yesterday
But you'd better be careful just what you say
Saved all my money, saving that's a drag
But I never let them see you when you drive up in your Jag
Oooo, they're gonna take it all away
