(Intro)
There are two guitars on the intro. One plays the main rhythm (played by Ben
Matthews last time I saw them live) while another plays a backing rhythm.
Here's the main intro chord.
B

---12---
---11---

---x----
If you listen to the tune you can work out the correct rhythm. Just play the
chord with a bit of left hand damping to deaden the sound.
While one guitarist is playing that, guitar 2 comes in with the following
sequence. (I think)
B5 A5 E5

Verse 2. (Similar rhythm)
There she stood with just one guitar
Looking much too good to be in this bar
I tried to leave but my feet were lead
And the song she played just filled me head

My senses sung my head was spun as I walked thru the door
(B5 Verse rhythm)
I gotta hear some more
The second time you come back to `I gotta hear some more'
play the following:-
F#
I gotta hear some more
Solo
Thats the basic rhythm patterns needed.
