Flash back time.... OK - I said it before but I need to repeat
this disclaimer - for those of you who want exact notes/timing -
get the recording. I learned this puppy off an 8-trk tape ~15? years
ago. I play the intro every once in a while when I'm fooling
around, and this is how I remember it. I'm not even sure what the
name is.... the request was for _Madam Blue_, but then during
correspondance wrote (sweet) Madam Blue... Anyways this is my
recollection:
Sweet Madam Blue (STYX)
(as per d.badermans hazy memory....)

Seems like I jump to 3/4 time for the next line - this is probably
not correct, so if you have a source, listen to it....

Weird notations:
ss -> slow strum

V -> up strum
My brain hurts -someone else posted the following, and as I can't remember the
rest of the song, I will just include it. NOTE: I am sorry I have no idea who
submitted the following - it was forwarded to me without credits...
