Moon Baby

I would like to start off by saying that Godsmack has got to be one of the
greatest bands out there.  Sully is a very talented singer/songwriter/multi
instrumentalist and Tony is a very awesome guitarist.  It's not very often that
you find a contemporary rock band that has really cool guitar solos in nearly
every song.  Unfortunately, Godsmack does not have really awesome solos in every
song, and this is one of those solo-less songs, but it's still really fun to
play, so, here goes.....

Post-Chorus

Really long ending part (THIS IS TECHNICALLY NOT A SOLO.  IF IT WAS, TONY'S
FINGERS WOULD BE MOVING ALL OVER THE NECK AND STRINGS AT A VERY FAST "PACE")

Open with this                        Play this really fast

Throw this in on the fourth or fifth time, at the end, at least
e-----------------------------------------

D-0-xxxx-0--------------------------------

Play the main part a ton of times (Palm mute it on the fifth or sixth time and
keep it palm muted for an additional three times)

After the three times the main part is palm muted, Tony adds this every time in
with some weird effect
