Standard tuning Comments: I like these chords, specially when the "harmony" part comes in by the second verse. There is also some very good solo guitar work here (although the last G natural against the E major chord in Riff 3 is a little annoying even with the gradual bend to the A). The high A's that fade in (both bent and straight) give a slightly eerie feel to the track. And you got to love Gene's castrato vocals during the jamming outro. 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 (acoustic steel-string, let ring when possible) E|-----------------------------------------------| B|----3----------3---------3----------3----------| G|-------2----------2---------0----------0-------| D|----------3--------------------2---------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| E|----2----------3p-2----------------------------| B|-------3-------------x-----------3--------3----| G|----------2-------------------0----------------| D|---------------------------2-----------0-------| A|------------------------3-----------2----------| E|-----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 (acoustic steel-string, let ring when possible) E|----5----------5----------5----------5---------| B|-------3----------3----------3----------3------| G|----------2----------2----------0----------0---| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| E|----2----------3p-2----------------------------| B|-------3------------------------3--------3-----| G|----------2------------------0-----------------| D|--------------------------2-----------0--------| A|-----------------------3-----------2-----------| E|-----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 3a (acoustic steel-string, let ring when possible) E|--------------------------3----------3---------| B|----3----------3-------------3----------3------| G|-------2----------2-------------0----------0---| D|----------3----------3-------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| < -
