different smoking implements on the cover, and the entire second side (which
this both leads off and concludes) is a suite about finding The Meaning Of
Life through O.D.ing. Nonetheless, Ted Nugent swears to this day that he
didn't know it's about drugs... - AW

Rhythm guitar, bass, and drums (2X):
A C/ / / / / / / / / / / / / / / /
Lead guitar enters, playing variations on A and C barre chords
