Like no holding back you can get the main melody (riff) in your head
To play over over the intro chords, you're set.
Capo at 2 makes the transitions more manageable for
Solo guitar. chords mapped out as if they were open.

Em c em d
G   c    d  c
Took a walk down hell's pavement
G    c    d  c
Took a walk down pulled by the tide
G   c    d   c
I had to make some  new arrangement
Em    c    g
Oh i thought i'd reach the other side
D    em    c   g
Then someone opened up their mouth to talk
D   em  c g  d
They said (hey!) you ain't where you think you are
Em  c  em  d
You just landed on the devil's sidewalk
G  c d  c
Had a minor misunderstanding
G   c d  c
With a street lamp one night
G  c    d  c
The smell of burning ... rubber hit my senses
Em   c   g
I thought i'd reach the other side
D   em   c  g
When someone opened up their mouth to talk
D    em   c   g d
They said (hey!) you ain't where you think you are
Em  c   em  d
You're just stranded on the devil's sidewalk
Em    c  em  d
You're just stranded on the devil's sidewalk
F#m am7
And it's cold, so cold
F#m   am7
And it's cold, so cold
F#m   am7  d
And it's cold, so cold
G  d g   c
No-one's got names, under the flames
G  d  g    c
Everyone screams, hope its a dream
G   d g   c f#m
Nothing makes sense, everything's tense
Bm d
Wish i could say  what it meant
G   c   d c
Took a long look  down at the mirror
G    c  d  c
Couldn't see my face at all
G     c   d c
Just those strait lines, leading to nowhere
Em     c g
Oh i thought i'd reach the other side
D em c    g
When someone opened up their mouth as if to talk
D   em   c   g d
They said (hey!) you ain't where you think you are
Em  c em d
You just landed on the devil's sidewalk
Em  c em d
You just landed on the devil's sidewalk
