This is a really cool song done acoustically. IMHO, the version on the
Van Halen Live CD is much better than the version on Sammy's solo album.
I won't vouch for the accuracy of this transcription, as I am an engineer
and not a music major...With that in mind, I am welcome to any corrections
or questions :)
