Most of the time the guitars are buried beneath a mountain of keyboards. Luckily, they play almost the same thing. The solo is also very pop. There¥s a strong emphasis on the natural third to really drive home the major tonality and things stay nicely within the major pentatonic scale (with the one exception of the 4th, D, which creates a nice sus4 feel). 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. 1 Eb|------------------------------------------------| Bb|------------------------------------------------| Gb|--------6------4------7------9------9-----------| Db|--------7------6------7------9------9-----------| Ab|--0--0------------------------------------------| Eb|------------------------------------------------| P.M.
