This tab is purely for acoustic strumming. I've played it multiple times at gigs
and it works perfectly. If you're having trouble with the timing of the chord
changes right before the solo as well as under the solo itself, listen to the song
and you'll get it. For the finger-picked intro, solo and middlesections check out
the appropriate tab versions of the song, this is just the chords.
OBS: The E on "Sunshine" in the chorus should be the barre chord that's an octave
above the standard open chord.
