U can pick up the rhythm of the thing pretty easily from the record.

>From this point u should be able 2 feel your way around the rest of the
song... same chord progressions during Cat's rap, the only different
bit is the scratchy chords around 3:27, which are x10 12 10 12 10.

I will add the solos and tabs 4 some of the keyboard bits
when I figure them out. Have fun with this one!
