Great acoustic song off of YLT's most recent album. The first half of the song consists
of a repeating melody, and the second is occupied by a solo.

At this point, the solo begins. From all the versions I've seen of this song played live
so far, Ira always plays a different solo from the one on the official version. But,
here is what he plays in the studio:
|e---3-3-3-3-1-0-----------------------------------------------| |B---------------1-1-3-----1-1-0-0-----------------------------| |G---------------------------------2-2-2-2-2-2/5-5-5-5/7-7-7---| |D-------------------------------------------------------------| |A-------------------------------------------------------------| |E-------------------------------------------------------------| |e----------------------------------------------------------------| |B---3-1-1-1-0-0----------1-1-1/3-3/5-5/8-8-3---3-1-3-1-0-0-------| |G---------------0-0----------------------------------------2-0---| |D-------------------0-0------------------------------------------| |A----------------------------------------------------------------| |E----------------------------------------------------------------| |e---1-1-1-1-1-1/3-3-0---------------------------------------------| |B---------------------1-3---1-0-----------------------------------| |G-------------------------------0-0-----0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0---| |D-----------------------------------0-0---------------------------| |A-----------------------------------------------------------------| |E-----------------------------------------------------------------| |e-----------------------------------------------------------------| |B-------------------------------3---1-3-3-----6-6-6-6-6/5-6-5-3---| |G---0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-2-0-0-0-0---0-------------------------------| |D-----------------------------------------------------------------| |A-----------------------------------------------------------------| |E-----------------------------------------------------------------| |e-------------------------------------------------------------| |B---1-3-1-3-3-3-3-3-3-1-1-3-3-3-1-1-1-0-0-0-2-2-2-0-0---------| |G-----------------------------------------------------0-0-0---| |D-------------------------------------------------------------| |A-------------------------------------------------------------| |E-------------------------------------------------------------| |e---1-1-3-0-------------------------| |B-----------3---0-1-3-1-0-----------| |G---------------------------2-0-----| |D-------------------------------0---| |A-----------------------------------| |E-----------------------------------|
Now play the main melody one last time:
|e-----------------------------------------------------------------| |B---3---3---3-3-----1---1---1-1-----0---0---0-0-------0---0-0-----| |G-----0---0-----0-----0---0-----0-----0---0-----0---0---0-----0---| |D-----------------------------------------------------------------| x2 |A-----------------------------------------------------------------| |E-----------------------------------------------------------------| |e---------------------------------------------------------------| |B---------------------------------------------------------------| |G---------0---0---------0---0-----0---0-0-0-----0---0-0-0-------| |D---4---4---4---4-2---2---2---2-----0-------0-0---0-------0-0---| |A---------------------------------------------------------------| |E---------------------------------------------------------------| |e-----------------------------------| |B-------------------------------0---| |G---------0---0---------0---0-------| |D---4---4---4---4-7---7---7---7-----| |A-----------------------------------| |E-----------------------------------|
And that's the end of the song. Questions? Possible corrections? All welcome.
