4/4-- 120-- fast moderato
|
| e | | | | | |
| B | | | | | |
| G | 10 | 12 14 12~~ 10 9~~ | | 10 |
| D | 12 | 12~~ | 12 10~~ 7h8h10~~ | 12 |
| A | | | | 8 | |
| E | | | | | |
| e | | | | |
| B | | | | |
| G | 12 14 12~~ 10 9~~ | | |
| D | 12~~ | 12 10~~ | 12* 14 |
| A | | | | 12* |
| E | | | | |
I think most of this next part is right...
| e | 13 12 10 8~ | 13 12 10 8~ 5 5 3 1 | | | |
| B | 15 13 10 8~ | 15 12 10 8~ 6 6 5 3 5 3~~ | 5 6~~ |
| G | | | 5 5~~ | 5 5 |
| D | | | | | | |
| A | | | | | | |
| E | | | | | | |
|
Now, play this again, but replace the last measure with
this_______|
Then, back to the first part with this...
| e | | | | | |
| B | | | | | |
| G | 10 | 12 14 12~~ 10 9~~ | 12~~ | 17~~ |
| D | 12 | 12~~ | 12 10~~ | |
| A | | | | | 15~~ 8 |
| E | | | | | 10 |
| e | |
| B | |
| G | | Then, some fast D blues scale soloing... |
| D | |
| A | 10 |
| E | 10~~ |
...Which leads into...
<<1st Solo>>
| e | | | | |
| B | | | | |
| G | 10 10 14b17r14 10~ | 9b10r9~ |
| D | 10 12 | 10 10 12 12 | | |
| A | | | | |
| E | | | | |
| e | 10 13p10~ 10 10 10 | | | |
| B | 13 10h13 10 | | 13~~ 15~~ | |
| G | 12 12p10 | 12~~ 12 | ? |
| D | | 12p10 | | ? |
| A | | 12p10 | | |
| E | | 13~~ | | |
I know this next part is not right, but this is what I play, & I
think
it sounds kinda like it so...
| e | | | | 11~ 11~ |
| B | | | | 11~ 11~ |
| G | | | | 10~ |
| D | 10~ | 13 12 10 8~ | 8 10 | |
| A | 8~ | 11 10 8 6~ | 6 8 | |
| E | | | | |
| e | | | | 11~ 11~ |
| B | | | 7* 5* | 11~ 11~ |
| G | | | 7* 5* | 10~ |
| D | 10~ | 5 8 8 10 | 7* 5* | |
| A | 8~ | 3 6 6 8 | | |
| E | | | | |
Then, this cool part...
| e | | | | |
| B | 10 8 | | | |
| G | 10 9 10 10 10 | 10 9 10 7 9 | | 9 10 |
| D | (10) (10) | 8 10 | | 10 | |
| A | | (8) (10) | | | |
| E | | | | | |
|
Keep playin this for a while, adding this variation when needed____|
When the distorted 2nd guitar comes in, it plays these fills...
| e | 12 12 13~ 12 13 12h13 | | | This fill |
| B | /13 12 | | | leads into |
| G | 13~ | | | this next |
| D | | | 7 5 | riff...>> |
| A | | | 8 |
| E | | | 6 10 8 |
<
<chorus, i="" guess...="">
>
| e | | | | | This goes on like this... |
| B | 11~ 10~ | 11 10 8 6 10~~ | 8/10 10~ | Then, he hits that crazy |
| G | 10~ 10~ | 10 10 10 5 9~~ | 7/ 9 9~ | climb riff thing too... |
| D | | | | |
| A | | | | |
| E | | | | |
Now, it goes back to the beginning 8 measures (by now you probably
know
What goes where...) Here's the second slow solo...
<<2nd Solo>>
| e | | | | |
| B | | | | |
| G | 10~~ | 12h14 12 10 12h14 12 /9 7 |
| D | 10 12 12~~ | 12 12 12 | 10/14 | 10 5 10 |
| A | /12 | | | |
| E | | | | |
| e | | | | |
| B | | | 13~ 6/8\6~ |
| G | 10~ 12 14b17r14 10~ | 12h14 5/7\5~ 5/7\5~ |
| D | 10 12 | | | 5/7\5~ |
| A | 12~ | | | |
| E | | | | |
Now that one part comes back, but instead of playing the same
thing twice,
the second part of this one goes like this...
| e | 1 3 1 3 5 8 10 12 10~ 8~ | | Then it goes back to the |
| B | 3 5 3 5 6 8 10 13 10~ 8~ | | chorus part, and you're |
| G | | | | 10~ | crazy if you think | 'm |
| D | | | | 10~ | gonna try to tab out that |
| A | | | | 8~ 7 8 | fast solo...yeah right... |
| E | | | | 8 |
Then, there's this part...(this is how I play it...)
| e | | | | |
| B | | | | |
| G | | | | 3 |
| D | 2 3 | 5p3 7p3 | 2 3 | 5p3 7p3 |
| A | 0 3 | 3 3 | 0 3 | 3 |
| E | 1~ | 1~ | 1~ | 1~ |
Play that twice, then there's this...(I think it's 3/3...)
| e | | | | t does this twice | | |
| B | 10 8 | 10h11p10 8 | and then does it | | |
| G | 10 9 | 10 9 | twice up higher | 10~~ | |
| D | 8 10 | 8 10 | and ends on this>> | 10~~ | |
| A | | | | 8~~ | |
| E | | | | | |
