OK. Here is the coolest part of the song, the bow solo. I would tab out the studio version, but there is so much delay and overdubbing that it is nearly impossible to play. So, what I will do is tab out various solo methods that Jimmy uses in his live performances and let you patch together what sections you like. Ok, Here we go.
