The chords for this song are already up here and right so I wont tab them out, it's A to
with a G in between on beat 4. Here's the tab for the intro solo.
It's played in A major, so you get a major mood over the A chord and lydian over the D
For example Jerry uses the flat 4 of D lydian (a G note) on the first beat of measure 2
a D major chord to make a Dsus4, which sounds really cool.
Anyways, he follows the changes pretty closely on this one, landing on the E note (A's
to start the measures over the A chord almost every time.
