This is my attempt at transcribing the song 'Sleepless', which has been my introduction to the world of King Crimson. I will base most parts of my 
transcription on the Tony Levin mix of the song, which (whose guitar parts at least) can be easily rearranged into the original version. I will try 
to transcribe the notes as accurately as possible, but positions might not be correct.

Verse Guitar I:
