NOTES:
This was the Paul Simon song ("A Hazy Shade Of Winter") that The Bangles
covered for the soundtrack of the 1987 film Less Than Zero. Very different
to the original: full-blown rock, and most of the bridge has gone.

Capo on 1, if you want to play along. Chords and tab are relative to capo.
Guitar Figure 1 is played in the INTRO and elsewhere as indicated.


INTRO:

Time, time, time, see what's become of me...
