Busy Man

Note: This translation was prepared in "Courier New" text format.  I 
played this song off of my radio, so the key may be slightly off from 
the original recording.  If it is, try using a capo or re-tuning your 
guitar by a half-step.   
 
Intro.:  Big kudos to whoever can figure out the intro.  I can pickout 
the notes, but have been unsuccessful in finding the chord combinations 
in this key that will allow me to do the hammer-ons.  If you figure it 
out, let me now and I'll update this submittal.
