Neat little ending. The verses are just the initial F#m and B "hammers"

like the opening and the neat little ending.

1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 . 1 . 2 . 3 . 4 .

"I can cry, beg and whine..." (then back to the D5)

the song stays with the F# and B with variations of those endings and

fills above.

the solo is in a F# blues (nothing hard really...just use a lot of

artificial harmonics) the tune just kicks...

i will post more tragically hip. any requests? wheat kings is C - G

and the chorus is D...but i will post a few fills and tricks when i have

time.
