Key:
Well, this is my first tab. It's 100% accurate except the solo, which is a little off. Anyhoo... enjoy.

And she saidEm 'Wait a minute I have to think' He said 'That's fine may I please buy you a drink?'B One drink turned into 3 or 4B# B Em And they left and got into his carB# B And they drove away some placeEm real farEm Now babe, the time has come How'd you like to have a little fun? And she saidB B# 'If we could only please be on ourG way,D Em I would not run'Em That's when things got out of controlEm B# B She didn't want toEm B# B He had his wayContinues after the adEm B# B She said let's goEm B# B He said no wayB Come on babe it's your lucky dayB# BB Shut your mouth we're gonna do itB# B my wayB B# B Come on baby don't be afraidB If it wasn't for date rape, I'd never get laid---------------------------------- -|---------------------Now it's solo time! This is the general gist of it, though there are some subtle tweaks that I couldn't catch, but I know are there. When I've tabbed out the 10^^^10, You have to hit the ten, bend it up to a 12 and hold it while you hit 12 on the high E string, and then hit the bent ten again while bringing it down. It's a Chuck Berry riff, a little difficult to get used to but sounds great. It's also used in the latter half of the solo, where you bend up 10 and hit 7 as well. / - Slide up \ - Slide down H - Hammer P - Pick off ^ - Bend up the next note, so if it's says 10^12, bend the 10 up to a 12 ~ - Vibrato (very little in this song, so don't overdo it)|------------|----12-----|-------- |-----8-10p8-|-10^^^10\8-|-10p8--- |-7/9--------|-----------|------9- |------------|-----------|-------- |------------|-----------|-------- |------------|-----------|-------- ||------------------------| ||8-----------------------| ||--9-7~---7--------------| ||-------9---9-7h9P7------| ||-------------------10-7-| ||------------------------| |----------------|--------------- |----------------|-10~~8~7~----8- |----------7-9-9-|---------7-9--- |------7-9-------|--------------- |-7-10-----------|--------------- |----------------|--------------- ....PM..... ||--||--------| ||--||-10P8---| ||9-||------9-|(This section is ||--||--------|played about 7x) ||--||--------| ||--||--------| |----7--| |-10^12-| |-------|(This section is |-------|played around 5x) |-------| |-------| |-------------------------------- |-10^12-8---10P8----------------- |---------9------9-7-9-9-9-10-10- |-------------------------------- |-------------------------------- |-------------------------------- ||-----| ||-----| ||10-9-| ||-----| ||-----| ||-----|Then play the intro again, and we're back into the second verse.---------------------------------- -|---------------------------------- -|----------Em He finished up, started the car He turned around and drove back to the barAm He said 'Now baby, don't be said,'B B# 'In my opinion, you weren't halfB bad.'Em She picked up a rock.
