I find this riff a little easier to play than all the stretching in the
previous version:
Main riffs:
e ---5---0-------------------|
B ----------6--------0-------|
G -------------7--6----------|
D -7---7---------------7-----|
A ---------------------------|
E ---------------------------|
>e -------------------------3---1-0---|
>B -0/1-1--0/1-1--1/3-3-3-3---3-------|
>G -----------------------------------|
>D -----------------------------------|
>A -----------------------------------|
>E -----------------------------------|
>A twelve string guitar plays, at "Run around in the radiation":
>e -0-1-----0--0-1-----0--0-1-----0--0-1-----0---|
>B ---------------------------1----------1-------|
>G -----2-2--------2-2----------2----------2-----|
>D ----------------------------------------------|
>A ----------------------------------------------|
>E ----------------------------------------------|
>...and an Am Gm F pattern at "So still, so dark..."
>Listen where to play the respective part. Not that tricky.
>The chords are pretty easy, simply Am F in the intro, Am D in
>the verses, and Am F in the chorus.
>There are several guitars playing on the record. To play it on just
>one guitar, the following blend of the chords & riffs can be used
>(leave the notes ringing for as long as possible) :
>For the Am F pattern :
>e ---0---0----1---0----------|
>B ------------1-------3-1-0--|
>G -2---2---2--2-2---2--------|
>D -2----------3--------------|
>A -0-------------------------|

what he's *really* playing. Close to what I had, but not exactly.
