Don't Look Back Tabs

(ver. 1)
Boston

if you don't know my notation, it's like this
/-\=slide up or down
h,p,b,r=hammer on,pull off,bend,release
w=wammy bar
v=vibrato
\_=slide all the way down fretboard

Intro
|------------------------------------|
|-14h15-15p14-14--x-x-x-x--7-9-10-9--|
|-14-14-14-14-14--x-x-x-x--7-9--9-9--|
|-14h16-16p14-14--x-x-x-x--7-9--9-9--|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
then they do the intro a second time, and another guitar comes in
and does this:
|-------------------14---------------------------------------------------|
|-12b14b14b14r12-10----14h15p14h17-14h15p14h7-14h15p14-------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------16-16b18-16b18r16-|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------|

|----------------|
|----------------|
|----------14-16-|
|-14-16-14-------|
|----------------|
|----------------|

they repeat the intro throughout the verses, and then they do this
pre-chorus arpeggio:
       G
|-------3----3-|-----0--|-----2-3-2--|              |----|
|-----0----0---|---1----|---3--------|              |----|
|---0----0-----|-0------|-2----------|              |----|
|-0------------|--------|------------|then on the   |-2--|
|--------------|--------|------------|4th time, play|-2--|
|--------------|--------|------------|              |-0--|

|-------------------------------12--|
|-7-5-7-5-7b9r7-5--10-10-10-9-------|
|----------------------------9------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------|


then here's the chorus
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|-----4-5-7-4----------------9-7-5-4h5p4-----------------|
|-7-7---------5-9b10r9-7-5---------------5vvv---9-9b10r9-|
|--------------------------8-----------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------------------------|
|-----4-5-7-4----------------9-7-5-4h5p4-----------------|
|-7-7---------5-9b10r9-7-5---------------5-7-9b10r9------|
|--------------------------8--------------------------7--|
|-----------------------------------------------------5--|

then here's the solo:
|-----------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------------|
|-----4-5-7-4----------------9-7-5-4h5p4--------------|
|-7-7---------5-9b10r9-7-5---------------5-7-9b10r9---|
|--------------------------8--------------------------|

then it gets higher in pitch, probably an octave.
near the end, they repeat the intro, followed by
this neat "Rideout" solo:
|-21-22-23-23b24--17h19p17--19b21wwww-------------14-17-14-17(tr)--|
|-------------------------------------17----17-19------------------|
|----------------------------------------18------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------------|
|-17b19-17p15p14----14-----------------|
|----------------16----16b18r16-14\_---|
|--------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|

they finally end doing this:
|--------------------------|
|---------/10-9-10-10vvv---|
|---7-6-7------------------|
|-2------------------------|
|-0------------------------|
|--------------------------|

the timeing's hard unless you've heard the song before
