But now she's gone yes she's gone away 
A soulful song 
That would not stay 
You see she hides 'cause she is scared 
But I don't care 
I won't be spared 

I could have lied I'm such a fool 
My eyes could never never never 
Keep their cool 
Showed her and I told her how 

   D              C
She struck me but I'm fucked up now

This is indeed a very good tab, one minor thing I noticed however. The section at the end of the first solo:

G||-9p7--7--7/9\5-------(5)\4/5\4\-|-2\0--

I think this part should be played on the D string and not the G string.

I would like to also say that you are the only person who has managed to tab the end of this solo correctly, including the Guitar Pro tabs. They all missed the 2\0 at the very end.

I want to post comment or correction [tab]
