Lonely is the Night - Billy Squier - Easy Rhythm Guitar

This is one of the first songs I ever learned. I tried to learn it by ear (way before TABs and the search engines) as the vinyl played on my record player. I thought all that Billy Squier stuff was awesome!

I cannot play lead to save my life so if you know the lead part - please post as a response!! Thanks!

I am playing through a Line 6 Spider Jam using the MP3 input from my iPod playing a backing track.

The backing track I used is HERE: http://www.freshbt.com/search/artist/Billy_Squier.htm

Tab is on my web site: http://home.comcast.net/~badguitar/site/

Very nice. Thanks for putting this out there for those of us still trying to learn it. !!!

pretty clean

No way I can get even to the first stretch at the A chord with my small hands... If I have my index finger of the A chord (2nd fret), how do I get my fifth finger on the fifth fret of the A string? Reed Richards form Fantastic Four. I guess when I grow up twice as big next life I can play it like that.
