"Melody day what have I done..."
Lead
I can't figure what the lead guitarist is playing live exactly. If anybody has any ideas
free to contact me. This is something I came up with anyway.

These notes are played once again after the second line of lyrics. If you listen to the
or video you can figure out when it is played through out the rest of the song.

After "Then your smile it melts away again..." these chords are played.

Next is slightly different to what was played in the first chorus. The chords are played
