version 2
Tuning:Standard tuning but you may want to use a slide.
Note: This is one of Jeff Lynne's best songs. The chords from the guitar and piano
fit beutifully. The chords are already up on this site but it didn't have the slide solo
that brings out the song. Plus, Ringo Starr filled in for the drums. You can find this
song on the album "zoom" that came out in 2001 under ELO. It's really a Jeff Lynne solo
