Alabama - 5 O'Clock 500 (with lead)
On the lead solos, it sounds as though there are either 2 guitars,
or the guitarist is using a harmonizer pedal.
I couldn't work out which, so I just tabbed the lead part using the
lowest notes.
A     =   x02220                          C     =   x32010
D     =   xx0232                          G     =   320003
D/Db  =   x40232                          D/B   =   x20232
D/A   =   x00232
