* These chords sound good on a solo acoustic to fill the song out, but also sound good if the 0 is replaced
by an x. I drone the open A string between the chords if played without a loop station or backing band.

a party night, It was the end of school, His head was
feelin' light, the first time. She seemed much
older then, She had turned seventeen, and she knew
some older men, the first time. Come said
PRE CHORUS
* The bracketed notes highlight the fill chord played behind the main rhythm. I have combined the tab for one
guitar, and have stayed with the prominent voicing where I can.
Guitar
the boy, let's go down to the sand Let's do what we
wanna do, let me be a man for you

Oh- woh- woh- oh, oh- woh- woh-------------------| oh,
Oh- woh- woh- oh, oh- woh- woh, And she said
* In a solo performance I also play the Dm7 chord to the rhythm the keyboard plays, but just tabbed the
guitar stabs as per the album version.
Guitar
Well I've been waitin' for a long time, and you've changed a lot
Up till now it's been the wrong time, To know whether to come here or not? Oh, but now come with
PRE CHORUS
Guitar
me boy, just take my hand, I'll let you see what
you wanna see, Come on, be a man for me.
* I play the chord in this position to be closer to the lick portion of the solo. The melody score that I saw,
says this is a Dm6/A. It sounds wrong in the place it is located in the score, but sounds good in this instance.
(It doesn't sound correct when substituted into the verse though.)
Guitar
* (2 not 22) Whoa- oh- oh,
Guitar
We've both been waitin' for a long time, We've both changed a lot,
Up till now it seemed the wrong time, To know whether to come here or not? Oh, but come said
* The slide from D is played on the bass, but I put it in as a guide.

OUTRO SOLO
* These parts I originally tabbed at the 12th fret, because it was close to the previous lick and seemed
easier to play. When watching live performance videos, the parts were played around the 7th fret, so I
changed it to suit. Other videos I saw did actually have the lick around the 12th fret, so I don't think
it really matters either way.
