Verse

Chorus

Riff A
Solo

Here's the beginning of the solo.  It's not exactly the same as on the CD but sounds a lot like it.  I know the beginning is different because it Kirk uses wah and the 15p14p13 aren't on the CD.

     *tremolo pick this note fast as hell and gradually
      bend up a step
   (w/wah)

This fill is played during the 2nd verse and after the solo.

            *pre-bend this note 1/2 step and gradually
               release as you pick

Lyrics:

Yeah, I feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns just free to you
That's running through
Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

      One day we'll see
      The dance come down to me
      Yeah come on come on now take the chance
      That's right
      Let's dance

Snake, I am the snake
Tempting, that bite you take
Let me make your mind, leave yourself behind
Be not afraid
I've got what ya need, hunger I will feed

      One day we'll see
      The dance come down to me
      Yeah come on come on now take the chance
      Haha!
      Let's dance

Yeah, come dancin'
(solo)

      One day we'll see
      The dance come down to me
      Yeah come on come on now take the chance


Yeah, I feel you too
Feel, those things you do
In your eyes I see a fire that burns just free to you
That's running through
Deep inside you know, seeds I plant will grow

      One day we'll see
      The dance come down to me
      Yeah come on come on now take the chance
      That's right
      Let's dance

It's nice to see you here
Haha!
