Hey this is my first tab so go easy on me. This is a great song and is tuned one whole step
down, which, seemed to be Elliott's favorite tuning.
I am currently trying to figure out the little solo part, mine is not complete but it
close. Enjoy. If you have corrections/suggestions
please feel free to email me on this site. Username is Kashmir101.

The song just follows the same rhythmic pattern. Here is what I gathered the solo could be.
Not 100%.
