The part where it says "1199" and "77" are due to this same problem, as well as that two sixteenth notes are played while up until here the pattern has been eigth notes. In other words he doubles time splitting the note into two, but not skipping a beat. This isn`t really complex at all, the problem is the way I`ve written out the TAB. It wouldn`t be confusing if I knew how to do this properly. Sorry. -Dave Then back to the main riff of eigth note Es and the D-A-D changes, after which the chorus is repeated. The second time through the main riff and chorus there are some minor changes which are probably not too hard to figure, including some slides and harmonics (at the seventh fret). This is because there have actually been two electric guitars doing this part, and the second guitar changes to these minor variations. Anyway, let`s get to the solo: During the solo the second guitar repeats this pattern (until the chorus): E D A E e-------------------------------------- B---T--9-----------------7-----5---7--- G---A--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-r-7-----6---7--- D---B--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-r-7-----7---7--- A------7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-r-5-----7---5--- E------0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-r-------5------- Semi-P.M. throughout Okay, this is probably a no-no to do in writing TAB, but to write the solo I`m going to pretty well forget about having the dashes mean anything in terms of keeping time, and just get the notes down in proper order. And I thought I had no problems with tablature. Anyone who wants to "clean-up" a copy of this and repost is welcome to, perhaps along with sending me a detailed e-message as to exactly where I went wrong tabbing things out. Anyway, lead guitar goes like: e----------12-----------------14--------------------------------------12------- B---T--12-----15^12-12--------12-15^12-12-12-----12-15^12-12-----12------15^12- G---A--14b-------------14-14b----------------14b-------------14b-14b----------- D---B-------------------------------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------------------------------------ E------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------12--------12------------------------------- 12----12---12-15----12--12-15^12-12-------------------------------------------- ---14-14b--------14-14b------------------14b-14b-14^12------14-12h----------12- -------------------------------------------------------14----------14-12-14---- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------12----12----12---12---15b---15---12----12------------12----------------- ----12----15----15-------------------------15------------12-------------------- 14b----------------------------------------------14b-14b-------14b^14^12----14- -------------------------------------------------------------------------14---- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------9----9----9---------------------------------------------------------10- ------9-9-12-9-12-9-------------------------------9--------------------10b-10b- 12-----------------11b^11^9-11-11-9----9-9-11b-----11b^11^9----11-9-9--------- ---12--------------------------------11----------------------11---------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----10-------------------------------7/9---9-97-7-0 Okay, I know the solo 10b----10b^10^8---10-8---------------7/9---9-97-7-0 continues on into the ----------------9------9-8-9---------7/9---9-97-7-0 chorus, but it`s 1:40 A.M. ---------------------------------------------------- right now, and I`ve got ---------------------------------------------------- classes from 8:30. I`m ----------------------------/12-x-0-r--------------- not sure if this is really going to do anyone any good anyway, what with my absolute lack of any time structure here. Anyway, I`ll post the rest of the solo later if someone will nicely e-mail me and show me how to post TAB where dual digit fret numbers and adding embellishments like bends won`t mess up the time kept by the dashes. If you have a copy of the song to listen to, this posting may yet do you some good, as the notes are accurate, I`m fairly sure. Yawn...
