The Velvet Underground's best song sung by Nico, a simple song, but the
whole production makes it one of the best songs recorded by the band.
I painstakingly tabbed this out in an hour and a half, then typed it, and
the accuracy is
pretty good.

Sorry for the long, extended, repetitive solo parts where it's easy to lose
your place. And also for the lack of any indication of note length or
timing.

/ = slide
h = hammer on
p = pull off
ssss = pick note up and down for a length of time

There are two guitars, but the second one is almost always playing one note
over and over again in the background, so I'll only cite it in the beginning
so you know what I'm talking about.

guitar 2 just plays even eighth notes on one note.

MAIN SONG guitar 2 not tabbed. I originally tabbed only the top two strings,
but this made it even harder to read, so I switched it back.
The main guitar comes in at the end of each verse. That's where the lyrics
are taken from.
