These fills differ with every verse, to save space in this tab I'm going to write each one out individually instead of out the entire verse line again. Here they are in order, with the preceding line above (except for the first two, which are played before the verses): D---------------------------| B--3------------------------| G--2b3r2b3r2-0---0h2p0---0--| D--------------2-------2----| G---------------------------| D---------------------------| D--------------------------| B--------------------------| G------0--0h2p0------------| D--0h2----------2p0--------| G-------------------4\2p0--| D--------------------------| "Hear them going round and round" D-------------------| B--0--------1----0--| G--0------0---0--0--| D-----0h2--------0--| G-------------------| D-------------------| "That still makes a lonely sound" D----------------| B--0--------1p0--| G--0--------0----| D-------0h2--p0--| G----------------| D----------------| "That came from Knoxville town" D----------------------------| B--0-------------------------| G--0------0h2p0-2b3-2b3r2p0--| D-----0h2--------------------| G----------------------------| D----------------------------| "When she took this old boy down" D-------------------| B--0--------1----0--| G--0------0---0--0--| D-----0h2--------0--| G-------------------| D-------------------| "Standing on the Penn state line" D----------------| B--0-------------| G--0------0------| D-----0h2---2----| G-------------0--| D----------------| "With angel on his mind" D---------------------------| B--3------------------------| G--2b3r2b3r2-0---0-2-0---0--| D--------------2-------2----| G---------------------------| D---------------------------| "The way it comes and it goes" D------------------------| B---------3--------------| G--0--2/4---4\2p0-----0--| D-----------------2p0----| G------------------------| D------------------------| The only one I can't seem to figure out is the very last one. Chorus: D---------| B----1-3--| G--0-2-4--| D--0------| G--0-2-4--| D---------| D----0-------0-------0-------0-------0-------0---------0-------0------| B--5---5---5---5---3---3---3---3---7---7---7---8p7---5---5---5---5----| G--------5-------5-------4-------4-------7---------7-------6-------6--| D---------------------------------------------------------------------| G--5-------5-------4-------4-------7-------7---------6-------6--------| D---------------------------------------------------------------------| D----0-------0-------0-----------0-------0---------0-------0------| B--5---5---5---5---3---3---3-5-7---7---7---8p7---5---5---5---5----| G--------5-------5-------4-----------7---------7-------6-------6--| D-----------------------------------------------------------------| G--5-------5-------4-------4-5-7-------7---------6-------6--------| D-----------------------------------------------------------------| D-----------------------------------| B--5-----5-----4-----4-----4-4-4----| G-----5-----5-----5-----5--5-5-5----| D--------------------------------0--| G--5-----5-----5-----5-----5-5-5-0--| D-----------------------------------| The final two choruses use the same chords as above, but instead of picking the notes, strum them as chords. After the first chorus, play the following fill: D-------------------------------| B--/3-3--3\1--------------------| G--/4-4--4\2p0---------------0--| D--------------2p0-2p0----------| G----------------------2/4\2p0--| D-------------------------------| The second chorus leads into Luther's guitar solo. Rich's solo rhythm is as follows: Solo rhythm: D-------------------------0--0---------------| B--/12-/12--10--8--x-x-7--5--3--1p0----------| G------------------x-x----0--0------0-----0--| D--/12-/12--10--9--x-x-7--5--4------------0--| G-------------------------0--0--------2p0-0--| D--------------------------------------------|
