***************************************************************
Notes:
EXTRA LITTLE NOTES: Play an E at the 5th fret of the second
string right before "Your mind tricked you to feel the pain."
After "or has it just begun...?" hammer an E from the open D
string followed by an open G string before entering Rhy Fig 5.
CHORUS: depending on my mood, I either play whole note power
chords or strum (eighth notes) the chords. Depending on what
sounds good at the time, I play either a C or a C6 chord.
Technically, it's supposed to be a C6 chord (my two versions o'
tab confirm this), but some days it just doesn't sound right.
PLAYING: Chris DeGarmo plays a spanish, nylon 6-string acoustic
for the rhythm part. I'm pretty sure a normal 6-string and a 12-
string join in along the way. As the the song progresses, I
think a 6-string electric (clean) comes in. Another electric
comes in for the solo (see below). I always play this song with
a steel 6-string and it sounds fine. If you play with steel
strings play without a pick: it sounds better IMHO. Any nylon
string players probably want to follow DeGarmo's part with a
pick. This info is just IMHO, not written in stone.
SOLO: Playing the heavily repeated part of the solo on acoustic
is kinda tough (which is what I always play the entire song
with). It never really sounds right. I freelance that part just
about every time I play it. If you have an electric with a
tremolo bar (sp) and all the effects (I think Chris DeGarmo likes
chorus, octave, and overdrive, but don't hold me to that), you
can make it sound perfect.
STRING ARRANGEMENT: I have no idea what the string arrangement is
(done by Michael Kamen of _Robin Hood_, etc, etc fame), nor do I
even have a clue. I would like to play them on my 'board, so if
anybody knows it, I would be glad if they sent it my way.

Hope you all liked it. As this is my first tab, comments, as
always, are appresciated. Flame, as always, is not.

Isn't this played as:
---7-----7-----5-----5-----5| -----0-----0-----0-----0----| -0-----0-----0-----0-----0--| ----------------------------| ----------------------------| ----------------------------|
and similarly for Rhy.Fig.1a. This is the way I play it and seems a little
easier. (Thanks for the rest of the post!)
