The Man: 
 
capo 2 

Electric Guitar Part: 
(For ease I've tabbed this whole song relative to the capo.) 
This electric guitar part is repeated until the Chorus. 
e|---------| 
b|---------| 
g|---------| 
d|-4/5-0-2-| 
a|---------| 
e|-3/5-0-1-| 

Chords he uses for the Chorus: 
(Played on an Acoustic guitar in the same rhythm as the electric guitar part, with palm muted strums on the 
Am and F chords) 

  Em7 Am G6 F 
e|-x--x--x--1-| 
b|-0--1--x--1-| 
g|-0--2--0--2-| 
d|-0--2--0--3-| 
a|-2--0--2--3-| 
e|-x--x--3--x-| 

This is the lick that Ed plays during the Chorus: 

e|-----------------| 
b|-----------------| 
g|-----------------| 
d|-------5---------| 
a|-3h5/7---7p5\3---| 
e|---------------5-| 

Acoustic guitar Solo: 
(Really pluck those Hammer-ons and Pull-offs; it's a solo that gradually gets quieter as the song draws to 
a close, so listen carefully.) 

e|---------------------------------------------------------------------3---3---3-3p0-----> 
b|----------------------------------6h8---6\5----------------------3/5---5---5-------3---> 
g|------------------5h7p5-5-5-----5-----9-----5-7p5/7-5--------------------------------2-> 
d|---------5---/7-7-----------7-7-----------------------7--------------------------------> 
a|-5p3-5p3---7---------------------------------------------5p3-5p3----------------------->

Can't really hear enough after that, so just let the 7 ring. Tried as hard as I could with this, and 
I think it sounds pretty accurate, comment if you have any questions.
