After the Star Spangled Banner, they do a short instrumental that goes
like this:
 
Guitar 1
|-----------|
|-5---6-5---|
|---5-----5-|
|-----------|repeat this a couple of times
|-----------|
|-----------|
 
Guitar 2
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-5---------|
|-3---------|
|-----------|
 
Then do this:
|-----------|
|-6/8-5-----|
|-------5---|
|-----------|
|-----------|
|-----------|
 
And finally, fade away doing this:
|------------------|---------|
|-6-8b10r8-6-8-6-5-|-6/8-5---|
|------------------|-------5-|
|------------------|---------|
|------------------|---------|
|------------------|---------|
 
That's the whole song about as accurate as I can get it.
Enjoy!!

Damn, I thought I wasn't going to have to figure this out myself, until I read it. I'm not sure what happened but you better take another look at this one.

Umm, their is some guitar harmony in here like all great boston songs, and you left it out of the second guitar part. the only differene in your two guitar parts is octave harmony, think about it.
