   Well there you have it. 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.
