Perfect Strangers

		Perfect Strangers
		(Deep Purple/Dream Theatre)

!		I tabbed the basic bits of this song from both the Dream
!		Theatre and Deep Purple versions, the Deep Purple version
!		had some fancier note-work in between bridge and chorus etc,
!		bust essentially the song is the same.

!		Quick Tab reference:
!		[-5/6-]  slide note from 5th to 6th Fret
!		/  slide (power)chord shape up two frets
!		[-5h7p5] hit and pull-off from 5th fret to 7th
!		[-5~~-]       hold note
