"Key West Intermezzo (I Saw You First)"
By John Mellencamp
Transcribed by Matt McClain
(Divine Inspiration by Tiffany Waggoner)

This song is played in "G" but you tune down 1/2 step, so it is really in Gb.
I guess John thinks he's in Alice In Chains or something.
I have typed this in by memory, so this may not be 100% accurate,
but it is fun to play.
I like to slow this song down and play it on my friend's 12 string.
Enjoy.

[Main Riff] (in Gb major scale- very easy to pick up)

Eb:-7----10-7--- Then you can play anything in the Gb
Bb:---10------8- major scale to connect this riff

Db:------------- in the song.
Ab--------------
