Another great song by American Hi-Fi. You will need to listen to the cd to get all the parts right. If you don't have the cd go to www.americanhi-fi.com and click on tunes. You can listen to the whole song online. Feel free to email with questions or comments. I will be adding the guitar solo and verse 3 to this piece later. Enjoy! P.S. I can give you the studio version of the intro\ riff if you want it. ============================================================================
