the sands become a crust.  Most of you have gone away.

Note: The way I play the 
Em
 chord ( the others are played similarly ) is

to play like an arpeggio ie.: Hold the 
Em
 chord О22ООО and play the 
B

note (5th str. 2nd fret) then the 
E
 (6th open) the 
B
 again with the

E
 optional (4th str. 2nd fret) and then strum the 
Em
 chord up (or down.)

using the first 3 strings in the open position while ringing the bass notes.

Second small leads (pull off 7to5 if you prefer)

  Hey!                                 Hey!


Repeat and play a 
Em
 blues scale over the chord progression above. Note that
the song is in the Key of 
G
 but 
E
 runs work well and y'know the mixylodian
scales that Buck uses. Modify the 
E
 blues scales to your liking as best
you can and also play parts of the lead parts shown above to get the sound.

For the lead parts try the 3rd run of 
E
 blues scales on the 5th fret.

Happy playing.
