This is "Patiently" by Journey. Amazing song that I understand was written in 10
by Steve Perry and Neal Schon. I could be wrong so dont bank me on that. One of the greatest
and a very underestimated guitar player. Enjoy!!

The chorus is just a little different.
It is played as follows:
| e 0 0 |
| B 1 3 3 0 1 1 |
| G 0 0 0 0 2 2 2 2 2 |
| D 2 2 0 2 2 2 2 |

| D 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 |
| A 0 0 |
| E 2 2 1 1 |
After the chorus it goes back into the verse and just keeps repeating until it gets to
Bridge right before the solo:

After the solo there is an acoustic part that I have no idea how to do and if anyone
help with that, that would be great. Hope you liked it, its a great song. Any questions
comments feel free to email me.
