Drop-D down whole-step

Comments: Not much to this bassline. Just try to keep a fairly light touch
with the pick since the strings are tuned way down. Other than that I
believe that this, along with Beth, is the only song of KISS' that doesn't
have any drums on it.

\    = slide down

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)

I WILL BE THERE 
Stanley/Kulick/Cuomo

[Rhy. Fig 1a]

[Rhy. Fig 1b]
Each and every day 
People turn away 
[Rhy. Fig 1c]
Change the things they feel 
Change the things they say 

[Rhy. Fig 1d]
We can never know 
Where our lives will lead 
[Rhy. Fig 1e]
Wherever you go 
Whenever you need 

[Rhy. Fig 2a]
I Will Be There 
Wanna be there 
I will hear you when you call 
Give you anything at all 
[Rhy. Fig 2b]
I Will Be There 
Anywhere 
Like a father to his son 

[Rhy. Fig 3a]
You are just a child 
All is yet to be 
[Rhy. Fig 3b]
Growing all the while 
Knowing when you leave 

[Rhy. Fig 2a]
I Will Be There 
Wanna be there 
Only blood will run so deep 
Seal the promise I will keep 
[Rhy. Fig 2c]
I Will Be There 
Anywhere 
Like a father to his son 
I can swear to only one 

[Rhy. Fig 4]
Time moves quickly as the years go by 
All these moments slip away 
When I'm gone and life will carry on 
You will know someway 

[Rhy. Fig 1b]
[Rhy. Fig 1c]
I will be there
[Rhy. Fig 2a] (2x)
I will be there

[Rhy. Fig 2a] (2x)
I Will Be There 
Wanna be there 
Only blood will run so deep 
Seal the promise I will keep 
I Will Be There 
Like a father to his son 
I must swear to only one

[Rhy. Fig 5]
