I think that there are 2 electric guitars in this one. I'm going to show you just the chords and a tip or two - you can take it from there. Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.

THE CHORDS:
F#...
(PIANO & GUITAR INTRO)
B
well, babe, you could be a standing in my kitchen
F#
or floating on your back in a deep blue sea
B
a wiser is the man who seeks new visions
F#
and tries to keep his heart and mind toll-free
E B F#
look away, oh Lord, look away, yeah
E B F# B
look away, oh Lord, look away
F# B
a running along, peeking down hole and alley
F#
just tryin' to find the Gospel, don't you know
B
I heared the sound of a cryin' down in the valley,
F#
but what is there - is only sticks and stones
E B F#
look away, oh Lord, look away, yeah
E B F#
look away, oh Lord, look away
F# E B
F# E B
F# B
(GUITAR SOLO)
F# -------- no chord --------- B
a check-ing it out in town I'm feeling lonely,
F#
you know that some of them women sure look good
B
a checking it up and down, now you should have told me
F#
there ain't no pretty things in my neighborhood
E B F#
look away, oh Lord, look away, yeah
E B F#
look away, oh Lord, look away
E B F#
(start of guitar solo)

TIPS:
Intro: The F# chord gets played for 16 measures (64 beats) before the vocal comes in.
Rest of Song: Try playing the stuff below when you see the F# and B chords (especially in the beginning, play the stuff in place of the F# chord). Play the 2s and 4s with your index and middle fingers - keep them both pressed down. Play the 6s with your pinkie. For each tab below, the only finger that needs to move is the pinkie.
