This is Freebird.  It is such a cool song.  This has all the parts, except the solo
for the second guitar (there are 2 guitars playing it and I only tabbed the main
one).  This is the version that is 9 minutes and something seconds long.  I have
tabbed the ENTIRE solo also.  I put the names of the rhythm guitar chords above the
measures of the lead guitar part.  Okay here it is.

That last 12 is the beginning to the next verse.  Now I don’t think I’ll tab the
 rest of the verses and chorus and stuff.  It’s all pretty much just like what I’ve
 already tabbed.  Just use your common sense to figure it all out.  Now I’ll just
 tab the solo and stuff.  On the rhythm part, you need to strum more than I've
 shown.  Remember, I’m not going to tab but only one guitar part for the solo.  So
 die.

Repeat that 12 times and on the 13th time, play this:

After you play that 4 times, strum each chord twice and wait 2 beats.  Just listen
 to it.  Goodness gracious.  Ok here comes the solo!  BAH! ( No measures included)

Bend that last note slowly.  Now comes the part where the other instruments play two
 quarter notes at the beginning of each measure and that’s it.  Kind of hard to
 explain, but if you would just freakin listen to it, you could figure it out!  Gosh!

That’s most of the whole thing.  I would tab the part where it fades out but I am 
too sick of this stupid song now.  All I have to say now is that you better rate 
this because I spent too much time on this for you not too.  Currently the rating is
 4 and i am not pleased.  The other tabs have 4 and mine is better.  Not only is it
 correct, it also has the entire solo!  Why for are you under-rating me then?  Thats
 dumb.  PLease rate this a 5.  Thank you to the people that have given me a good
 rating.  Also please correct this tab if you see anything wrong with it.  
Also somebody please email me.  My inbox is empty.
ha got erased!
