There is an instrumental studio version of this song floating around that seems like
in open F, but the tape sounds a little slow, and the only live version I have is in open
so I'll tab this in open G (notation is obviously exactly the same, it's just that the
would sound a full step lower in open F). The live versions have lyrics, so the verses
choruses here correspond to those.
Tuning: DGDGBD (Open G)

The whole solo rhythm figure is repeated twice for the first solo, then for about two
at the end of the song (as Rich joins in on the fun with some lead parts of his own).
it's finally time to bring this song to a close, simply play the following:

B--7--0--7--|
G--7--0--7--|
D--7--0--7--|
G--7--0--7--|
