A lost 80's classic that rocks very very hard. Here's the intro:
---------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------2--8--2--6--2--8--2--6--2--8--2--6--2--8--2-6-
---------2-------2--7--2--5--2--7--2--5--2--7--2--5--2--7--2-5-
-3-2-0-----------2--5--2--3--2--5--2--3--2--5--2--3--2--5--2-3-
-------3---3-2-------------------------------------------------

And here's the verse. This is played through most of the song:
----------------------------------------

-2---7--7--5---5---2---7--7--5---2------
-2---5--5--3---5---2---5--5--3---2------

Here's the pre-chorus. Mute the power chords a little:
------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------
-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5--

Play this:

The solo goes straight back into the verse, then the prechorus, and then
The verse again. To wrap up the song, play the verse riff 1 3/4 times
(listen to the album to get the timing right), play the opening little
intro riff, slam an A chord, scream "Thank you!" at the top of your lungs,
and you're done!
Rock on...

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official DEF LEPPARD tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
