Golden Earring – Quit eyes
It sounds like Rinus is playing scales during the verses, so I've put that in.
During the pre—chorus, chorus, bridge it sounds he's just stays on the root notes.
Anyway, it seems to be OK, have fun, it's a nice 80's rock song.

Golden Earring are a Dutch rock band, founded in 1961 in The Hague as the Golden Earrings (the 's' was dropped in 1969). They had international chart success with the songs "Radar Love" in 1973, "Twilight Zone" in 1982, and "When The Lady Smiles" in 1984. In their home country, they had over 40 hits and made over 30 gold and platinum albums. Current members of Golden Earring are Barry Hay (vocals, guitar, flute and saxophone, member since 1968), George Kooymans (vocals and guitar, founder of band), Rinus Gerritsen (bass and keyboard, founding member), and Cesar Zuiderwijk (drums and percussion, member since 1970). Golden Earring have sold millions of albums worldwide, and they are one of the longest existing rock bands in the world that are still performing today in the same line up. 2009 marks the return of the band to the UK and 2010 the release of a new studio album.
