Author/Artist: Mother Love Bone
Title: This Is Shangrila
Album: Stardog Champion
Transcribed by: Rick
Written For: http://www.giventowail.com

There's basically 3 different sections of this song (minus the solo) and they 
aren't hard to master. There's the intro (that's also used for the Chorus), stuff
during the Verses, and a riff labeled "Chorus (2)" that's basically built around
an A. There's a lot of random improvised notes in here (as there are in most 
MLB songs) so just fool around with it.
