 Hi, I reckon this is a fairly accurate transcription of History of
 Us. Unfortuneately, I've lent my copy of the tape to someone at the
 moment, so I can't be sure that the picking patterns in the solo
 and coda are exactly right, in fact they're probably wrong, but
 they're pretty close anyway. The picking pattern for the verses is
 slightly different each time round but I've only shown what happens
 the first time - perfectionists should refer to the tape and work the
 rest out themselves.
 If anybody knows something about this that I'm not aware of like
 funny tunings, feel free to correct it.
 Enjoy yourselves,
            
       Paul Hutchinson.
