NOTES:
Well, that's all I have written down! I originally transcribed this
song back when the tape first came out (1987), and I haven't looked at this
transcription since. This could certainly be better, but I haven't the time
to check all my work. One thing to note: the solo as transcribed by Guitar
World is more correct. In other words, I think I got the notes all right,
but they got the notes and the right strings!
I hope this helps, and if you need any assistance parsing the tab
just e-mail me. Also, the spacing I've used is in no way related to the
actual timing of the song. Enjoy!

"Try not. Do. Or do not. There is no try." -Yoda
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 WHITE LION 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.
