* This last phrase is for the intro and after the second verse. After the
first verse, bend the F# to G#, release to F#, bend to G#, and follow
with a slight tremolo bend, if you have one. Play only the E5 portion
after the third verse.

First solo (1:56). It sounds like he has a wah rocked all the way back and
is using the tremolo (which I don't have) for much of the vibrato and bends.
This sounds very close if you are also tremolo deficient.

This seems to be a good stopping point, although there is a cool lick
around 4:37, or so. The recording has faded 3 or 4 dB and a second
guitar track, which was back in the mix previously, has been gaining in
volume and I think tabbing two lead guitars is rather tedious.
Lyrics:
I've not figured out whether this song is about religion, sexual
conquest, or law enforcement, so I may have some mistakes with the
lyrics. Help would be appreciated.
