Hey, I have the Wonder What's Next Book, and I just want to make a few corrections to my favorite song.





Legend:


!: Play note louder


*: Pinch harmonic





Instead of:

|--------0-------------0---------------0--------------------|


|--4-4-4---4-4-4--4-4-4----4-4-4-4-4-4-----4-4-4--4-4-5-5---


, or however you wrote it, it goes like this.





----------------------------------------------------------0----


-----0---0!--0---0---0!---0---0---0!--0---0---0---0---0--

. . . . . . . . . . . .





its...





B--7-3-0-7-3-0-*6-*3-*0-*3-*6-*0--





not a big change...





In the one part...

|-3-3-33-3-3-33-3-3----------------0-0-00-0-0-00-0-0--------------|





The actual lead guitar, if you listen closer goes like...





|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|-------------------------5/4---4-4------------------------5/4---4-4--|


|-3-3-33-3-3-33-3-3--------------0-0-00-0-0-00-0-0--------------|

|-3-3-33-3-3-33-3-3--------------0-0-00-0-0-00-0-0--------------|





One last correction...





When he plays...

...He doesn't play the high string.





Okay, other that, you pretty much got everything right. Thanks for your time.
