Just about everything is played between the 9th and the 14th fret. I love this song, but for a long time I couldn't figure out how it was played. It was those chords in the beginning (Rhy. Fig 1) that tripped me up every time. Don't know why. I would have loved to see KISS do this song live just once. I think it could have been a really cool audience participation thing. If it sounds a little weak that's because the bass is such a big part of this song. 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|--11--11--11--9----11h-12--11---------------------------------| Gb|--11--11--11--9----11h-13--11---------------------------------| Db|--11--11--11--9----11------11---------------------------------| Ab|--------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|--------------------------------------------17----17----------| Gb|--16-16-16----------------------------------16----16----------| Db|--16-16-16----------------------------------14----14----------| Ab|--14-14-14----------------------------------------------------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 3 Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Gb|--16-16-16----------------------------------16----16----------| Db|--16-16-16----------------------------------16----16----------| Ab|--14-14-14----------------------------------14----14----------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|--12----12--13--12--13--12----14----14--15--14--15--14--------| Gb|--12----12--12--12--12--12----14----14--14--14--14--14--------| Db|--12----12--14--12--14--12----14----14--16--14--16--14--------| Ab|--------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--------------------------------------------------------------| < -
