This is the intro, taking you up to the chorus. ("Good Times, Bad  
Times...")  There are actually two guitars here, but I've tried to simplify  
things as much as possible for one.  Also, watch for minor changes in the  
fingering, as there are changes not only between the hammers-on and slides of  
the two guitar parts, but between each time the bit is repeated.  My symbols  
above the TAB, "[:  :]x mean to repeat everything betweeen the brackets and  
colons, and do it the number of times followed by "x", in this case five times.

Here's the chorus, in which I'll TAB out the two guitar parts  
separately, as there is quite a difference:

Guitar II:

At this point "Sixteen I fell in love..." both guitars play the same  
part, which is:
    [:F#5       E5F#5   E5F#5  F#5       E5 F#5  E5F#5:]x3

Watch for changes in which notes are struck and where rests are taken  
each time you repeat.
Now the chorus comes again, but this time it's in B, use chord changes  
between B (x2444x), Esus4 (00222x), and E (02210x).  At "when my woman left  
home..."  go to a C# (x4666x) on "woman", to a B (799877) to an F#  
(x9.11.11.11x).  Hopefully, you get the picture.  I could TAB it out, but it's  
not that complex, and I'm feeling lazy.
