The song plays a lot with muting strings during both verse and chorus. Once the last section before the solo
of the song comes into play, then you can strum the chords normally with barely any muting technique.

"Let me, let me, let me, let me, let me, let me love you tonight
'Cause I'm a real speed racer so I gotta get to know you alright
Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme lovin' tonight
Well, she's a real cool sister but I'm thinking she's a little uptight"

[Solo]
Studio version uses three guitars layers: Starting left channel solo and chords on the right channel, followed
by an additional guitar playing the same notes but a higher octave on the right channel.
Please notice the small delays that are tabbed for the solo.

For the solo, Stephen used to play the second part of the solo twice during live performances instead of going
from low octave to higher octave.
Feel free to play the solo as it may fits best for your own performances, either by playing high octave
twice or low octave into high octave, or simply playing the chords part.
