----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Never By Your Side - The Blackout ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Favourite song off this album, pretty simple really. I can't hear the lead well enough to work out so it's not in here. It's only a minor part anyway. This should be right (it sounds right to me).

Mess around and find some that work for you. I think they're on the 5th string.
