(organ & violin do their thing then guitar solo)
If you want to jam to this the chord progression is:
Em Am G Bm G#m A# D# Am
So then you and your freinds can jam out to the Floyd

Two guitars, one isn't tabbed because it has very little signifigance
In this solo.
 W/Slide High Treble and slight Overdrive (Fuzz)
