Tip: Don't cramp yourself at the beginning. It's not as difficult as it
might seem. When you've found out the flow it'll sound very cool.
In the acoustic version (Atlanta/Acoustica) Kirk ends the intro on:

B-------------------------|
G---------0---------------|
D------4-----4------------|
A---2-----------2--5--4---| and starts again at the top.

Note: The solo might not be 100% correct. Send your hatemail to Philly!
BTW: In the acoustic version Kirk plays every note in the solo about 3
times
in a very fast way, sounds good. I think he uses a very soft pick.
