Behind the Hammond riff there's a Wah guitar playing some muted
strums with a bit of a funky rhythm.

Verse 1

During the singing the organ plays syncopated (off-beat) stabs
during the C7 and a distorted guitar joins in for Bb, Eb and F
just hitting the chords once then sustaining them. The wah
continues in the background.

This little riff is played behind all of the chords during the
chorus. It is heavily flanged (Chorus & Phaser effects).

Everyone	has been burned before,

After the chorus, a little break is played:

    F  G	  F  G

D|--3--5----------3--5----|
A|--3--5----------3--5----|
E|--1--3----------1--3----|


Verse 2 (As first verse)

The only one I know, never cries, never opens her eyes,
The only one I know, wide awake and then she's away,
The only one I see, is mine as she walks down the street,
The only one I see, has carved her way into me.

Repeat Chorus twice then the F-G, F-G break.

Solo

Starts off with a little bass riff:

G|-----------------------|
D|-----------------------|
A|--3--3-3-3-3-3-3-3--1--|
E|-----------------------|

Repeat this four times, drums enter after two.

This is the guitar solo; it's a pretty distorted sound with a bit of
reverse reverb. It's pretty easy, so keep your playing clean:

  C7	     C7	      Eb		  F
