Here Gene plays two-note chords during some figures and the striking of the pick is hard to emulate with fingers. The line also requires some hand strength to be able to hold down those chords. But man is it worth it. The G to C thing in the verse is really heavy and it¥s all thanks to Gene¥s chords. 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 Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|---------------------------------------------------| Eb|--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3---| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|-----------------3----------------------5----------| Eb|--3--3--3--3--3-------5--5--5--5--5--5-------1-----| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|-----------------3---------------------------------| Eb|--1--1--1--1--1-------3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3--3----| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|---------------------------------------------------| Ab|-----------------3----------------------5----------| Eb|--3--3--3--3--3-------5--5--5--5--5--5-------1-----| Gb|---------------------------------------------------| Db|----------------------------------5----------------| Ab|-----------------3---------------------5\-3--2-----| Eb|--1--1--1--1--1-------3--3--3--3----------------3--| Rhythm Fig. 2 Gb|------------------------------5----------5---------| Db|------------------------------5----------5---------| Ab|--5--5------5--5-----------------------------------| Eb|------------------------3--3-------3--3------------| < -
