Solos
first solo is by a dobro if I'm hearing it correclty

(so you can improvise all you want on that)

F#m           B               E            A  (hold)
 And tell_ me all my loves in vain__       Lay___la

Ok, well thats about it. Yes, I also was amazed when I found a version of a rock classic
done by The Charlie Daniels Band. But its a really good version.
Its pretty much the same as the Derek & The Dominos version, but still really cool.
Have fun and Enjoy!!
