     The double tracked solo for this song doesn't sound too difficult so I
may post that later. For now, here's the main riff and all the chords that
basically define this song. All corrections, comments and questions should
be sent to meunier.1@osu.edu  Enjoy!

   "One of the greatest put together songs that Aerosmith ever did. Those
were my thoughts on UFOs, the theory of evolution, the monkey, and Adam and
Eve. How incredibly naive to think that there were just those two people
just buzzing around the woods naked, having a blast."
                    -Steven Tyler

       "Adam's Apple"(Steven Tyler)

Performed by Aerosmith on "Toys in the Attic"(1975)

   D--2---2-----------4b4-4r--5------------------------|
   A--0-------3b-p0------------------------------------|
   E---------------------------------------------------|

The verse riff,upon which most of the song is built, is very similar in
structure to the intro. The only difference is the beginning and the end. In
other words, it's just this over and over again: 
   rhy.fig.1-
   E------5-----------------------|
   B---2--5-----------4b-4-4r-----|
   G---2--2-----------4b-4-4r-----|
   D---2--2-----------4b-4-4r-----|
   A---0------3b-p0---------------|
   E------------------------------|

       A(palm muted)        
   Back when Cain was able way before the stable
   Lightning struck right down from the sky 

At this point, the guitar plays this:
  rhy.fig 2-
       D5    C#5 C5  B5    B
  E------------------------2----|
  B------------------------4----|
  G----7----7--6--5--4-----4----|
  D----7----7--6--5--4-----4----|
  A----5----5--4--3--2-----2----|
  E-----------------------------| (strum the last chord in rhythm with the song)
                                                    
  A mothership with faith said "Let's give it a try"(rhy.fig 1)
  A
  Conscience ...
  Man, he was ...
  Lady Luck took him by surprise(rhy.fig.2)
                                                    E
  Her sweet and bitter fruit ...
chorus-
          D
  Well, she ...
  F
  Lordy it was love ...(rhy.fig 1)  
           D
  Well she ...
   G                         F#m         E
  Never knowin' wrong ...

The chord progression is pretty much the same until the end. The rest of the
lyrics go like this:
 
   Even Eve in Eden....
   
   Man, he was believer....go into chorus)

   Science was related....
  
   Evil came like rain an' who knows ....
   (chorus)
 
End on a variation of rhy.fig. 1 and throw the E chord in over "that's
right!" That's basically it. It should be pretty accurate because it's
similar if not identical to the way that Joe Perry played it in a
Rockumentary clip of Texxas Jam '78(I'm pretty sure that's what it was).
Please consider posting the solo if you know it.
