For some reason he chooses not to play the first A, compare Rhy. Fig 1a with 1b and 1c, during the instru- ental parts and the first round of each chorus. During the guitar solo, it's all octaves; something he uses freqently. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum Rhythm Fig. 1a Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|---0--0-3-----0--0-2-----0--0-1-----0--0-12\-------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 1b Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0-0--0-3----0-0--0-2----0-0--0-1----0-0--0-12\---| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 1c Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0-0--0-3----0-0--0-2----0-0--0-1----0-0--0-12----| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0--0--------3--3---------------------------------| Eb|--------x-3----------------------------------------| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0--0--0------------------------------------------| Eb|----------3---1--1----------------1/---3-----------| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0--0--------3--3---------------------------------| Eb|--------x-3----------------------------------------| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0--0--0------------------------------------------| Eb|----------3---1--1-----x-x--3--------3----4--------| Rhythm Fig. 3 Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|-----------------7----------7----------7-----------| Ab|--0------0----0----------0-------0--0--------------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|-----------------7---------7--7--7--7--7--7--------| Ab|--0------0----0------------------------------------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 4 Gb|-----------------9----------9----------9-----------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--7------7----7----------7-------7--7--------------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Gb|-----------------9---------9--9--9--9--9--9--------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--7------7----7------------------------------------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 5 Gb|-------9----------9-------------9----9-------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--7-------7----7--------7--7-----------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------0----------| Riff 1 Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|--15\----------------------------------------------| Eb|---------------------------------------------------| SNOW BLIND Frehley [Rhy.
