I noticed a mistkae when after I submitted this. The first one is at the bit where it says "You Know". It should actually have one of the nines on a line below as illustrated "You Know..." e |-------------------------------------------------------------| B |--9--9-7------9-7-----9-7-----9-7----------------------------| G |---------8--6-----8-------8-------8-------6-8------5-6-------| D |--------------------9-------9----------9-------6--9-----4----| A |-------------------------------------------------------------| E |-------------------------------------------------------------| The second mistake is the bit just after the solo - it should be a six instead of a 4 as illustrated below. e |----------------------------------------------------| B |----------------------------------------------------| G |----------------------------------8-----8--6--4-----| D |---9-8-9--9/11-9-8-9---8-9-9/11-9---6-----------6--5| A |----------------------------------------------------| X2 E |----------------------------------------------------| -Gladman

This section of part one actually goes like this: e |---18-18-18-18-18/14/7---| B |-------------------------| G |-------------------------| D |-------------------------| A |-------------------------| E |-------------------------| instead of 18/15/12
