(The worst offender I've seen was the Best of KISS tab book that is on the shelves. It doesn't even have the right key.) Now, I probably shouldn't cast stones here because I realised I've been playing it wrong when I tabbed it properly. Really, it's a very simple riff (and there is really just one riff in the entire song). The trick to it is Paul's style of playing. As I've said before, he fingers power chords using only his first and third fingers, laying a partial barre with the third finger. This causes him to include the major third of the chord every once in a while. He uses the same thing here. The third finger frets everything on the 6th fret and the first finger deals with most everything else. The notes in parenthesis here are notes that are hit occasionally because Paul uses the third finger (he sometimes plays single notes and sometimes does the partial barre). Be sure to slide up from the 4th fret to the 9th with your first finger. The solo is shared, first half is Paul, the second is Ace. 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----6p-4-----4----4--6p-4-----4/-----9-----| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4--6p-4-(6)-4/-----9-----| Ab|-------------6----------------6---------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------| Gb|--6----6p-4-----4----4---6p-4-----2------4----| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4---6p-4-(6)-2------4----| Ab|-------------6-----------------6--------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|-(9)------------------------------------------| Gb|--9-------------------------------------------| Db|--9-------------------------------------------| Ab|--7-------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|-(11)-----------------------------------------| Gb|--11---------------------------11-------------| Db|--11------------------9--------11-------------| Ab|--9-------------------9--------9--------------| Eb|----------------------7-----------------------| Rhythm Fig. 3 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------| Gb|--6----6p-4-----4----4--6p-4-----4/-----9-----| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4--6p-4-(6)-4/-----9-----| Ab|-------------6----------------6---------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------| Gb|--6----6p-4-----4----4--6p-4-----4------4-----| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4--6p-4-(6)-4------4-----| Ab|-------------6----------------6---------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 4 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------| Gb|--6----6p-4-----4----4--6p-4-----4/-----9-----| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4--6p-4-(6)-4/-----9-----| Ab|-------------6----------------6---------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------| Gb|--6----6p-4-----4----4--6p-4-----4------------| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4--6p-4-(6)-4------------| Ab|-------------6----------------6---------------| Eb|----------------------------------------0-----| Rhythm Fig. 5 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|--2------------------4------------------------| Gb|--2------------------4----------------6-------| Db|--2------------------4----------------6-------| Ab|--0------------------2----------------4-------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 6 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------| Gb|--6----6p-4-----4----4--6p-4-----4/-----9-----| Db|--6----6p-4-(6)-4----4--6p-4-(6)-4/-----9-----| Ab|-------------6----------------6---------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------| < -
