Here is the guitar intro for the song. I think that this is pretty close to what
Chris Hayes played on the record. He's a tremendous guitar player, and I hope to
see more of his stuff (huey lewis & the news) tabbed here on the net. Please
understand that I didn't make an effort to show timing in any way, but if you
know the song and the lick then you'll be ok.
