[C]So, so ya think you can t[D]ell
heaven from h[Am]ell, blue skies from [G]pain, can you tell a green[D] field
from a cold steel [C]rail? A smile from a [Am]veil? Do ya think ya can [G]tell?
did they get you to [C]trade, your hero's for g[D]hosts, hot ashes for t[Am]rees
hot air for a co[G]ol breeze, cold comfort for [D]change, did you ex[C]change,
a walk on part in the [Am]war, for a lead role in a ca[G]ge?

(guitar solo, played over intro fig.)
(This second guitar solo is almost identical to the first, with very
slight variations on the same basic:

[and]

I never realized the nevada one didn't have the solos, since I
already knew it, I haven't looked at them. Well, this is going to be
the whole song (or the itnro anyway), but the solo is in there. It may
not be perfect, this was tabbed from playing by ear, but it sounds
good to me, and it's how I've been playing it for a long time.
Enjoy...

Pick strings close to the bottom of the guitar to get that echo sound
