Here's the way I play this song. I'm sure it's not 100% accurate
but it's close enough. I couldn't find this posted with the
leads anywhere so I decided to take a stab at it.

Enjoy!


sl=slide (up or down)
b=bend
h=hammer on
p=pull off

Cause I just got to know how far yeah
How far is heaven?
Yeah, Lord can you tell me?
