In Cold Blood


------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In Cold Blood - by Joe Lynn Turner ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Andy (yalaki) Email: yalaki@hotmail.com Official Joe Lynn Turner website: http://www.joelynnturner.com/ Powerful opening song on Joe Lynn Turner's JLT solo album. It is really fun to play. It's not too hard to learn either. Once you get the main riff (in the intro for example) you're almost done. I think I'm correct in saying it is Al Pitrelli on rhythm guitar and Chris Caffery (of Savatage) as guest soloist. Chris' solos don't sound like they want to be tabbed so I haven't bothered. I have however included pretty much every note played by Al. Enjoy! I know I will be! Questions, comments, requests, etc, email me at yalaki@hotmail.com Tuning: Standard ****** Intro: ****** In this riff you may prefer to play it slightly differently, maybe on the A and D strings instead of D and G for example. This is how I play it: e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|o--------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|-----6---6----------6---6-----------8h9-8-6-8-6-----6----------------------| D|-----6---6--8--6----6---6--8--6-----------------8-6---8-6-8~~--------------| A|o--------------------------------------------------------------------------| E|---9-----------------------------------------------------------------------| Play Twice e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------o| G|-----6---6----------6---6-----------8h9-8-6-8-6----------------------------| D|-----6---6--8--6----6---6--8--6-----------------6-8~~----------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------o| E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| ******** Verse 1: ******** "I know what you're all about..." e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|o--------------------------------------------------------------------------| G|----------------------------------------------8----------------------------| D|--6--/8-8---8----11--\8-8---6---6--/8-8---8---8----------------------------| A|o-6--/8-8-x-8----11--\8-8-x-6---6--/8-8-x-8---6----------------------------| E|--4--/6-6-x-6----9---\6-6-x-6---4--/6-6-x-6---6----------------------------| Play Twice e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------o| G|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|--6--/8-8---8----11--\8-8---6---6--/8-8---8---8----------------------------| A|--6--/8-8-x-8----11--\8-8-x-6---6--/8-8-x-8---8---------------------------o| E|--4--/6-6-x-6----9---\6-6-x-6---4--/6-6-x-6---6----------------------------| "Oh, who do you think you are?..."
