Pretty straight-forward rock n¥ roll with some Spanish/Arabian flavors thrown in for good measure. Some decent fills too. During the solo there is a D-note that is manipulated by turning on a mean distorsion while flicking the wah-wah pedal. 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. 1a (palm mute throughout) Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Gb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Db|----------------------------------------------------------------| Ab|--0-0-2-2-3-3-0-0-----------0-0-2-2-3-3-0-0---------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 1b Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Gb|-2-----5---5---4--------7---7---5--------9---9---7--------5---4-| Db|-2-----5---5---4--------7---7---5--------9---9---7--------5---4-| Ab|----------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Gb|--2--------5---5---4------------7---7---5------------9---9---7--| Db|--2--------5---5---4------------7---7---5------------9---9---7--| Ab|----------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 (P.M. on 6th) Eb|----------------------------------------------------------------| Bb|----------------------------------------------------10--10------| Gb|-5----7----9-----11-----12--12----11/12--12--11--9--9---9-------| Db|-5----7----9-----11-----12--12----11/12--12--11--9--------------| Ab|----------------------------------------------------------------| Eb|--------------0------0---------------------------------------0--| < -
