Tabbed by: Old Rasputin

Tuning: C standard (C,F,Bb,Eb,G,c)

Note: All note names are written as though we are in standard tuning, as I

refuse to re-learn my fretboard in C.

Note: Sometimes I feel it necessary to notate rhythm, My conventions are as
follows:
W = whole note/rest R = rest
h = half note/rest
q = quarter note/rest /
e = eighth note/rest o/o = repeat previous bar
s = sixteenth note/rest /
h.= dotted half note

Tied note values are connected with an underscore.
example: s__(s) (a 16th tied to another 16th)

anything under: /--3--\ is a triplet

Double bar lines indicate the end of sections.

Bar lines occur every 4 beats.

Main Riff: (the bend on those 3's is small - like a quarter step)

c.|-------------------------------|------------------------------||

Eb|-------------------------------|------------------------------||X4
Bb|-------------------------------|------------------------------||
F.|-------------------------------|------------------------------||
C.|-7p0-00--7p0-00--7p0-00--3b-00-|-7p0-00--3b-00--7p0-00--3b-00-||
s s ss s s ss s s ss e ss s s ss e ss s s ss e ss

The 1st two times through, the lead guitar only does hits on beat 1 and then
joins in full force for the 3rd and 4th time through.


Riff 2:

1st Solo: (rhythm guitar plays main riff 2X)

c.|-17p15p12------------------------17p15p12--------------------------|
G.|-----------------17p15p12------------------------17p15p12----------|
Eb|---------16p14p12--------14p12-----------16p14p12--------14p12-----|
Bb|------------------------------14------------------------------14---|
F.|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
C.|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
(all 16th note triplets until the bend)


c.|-17p15p12---------------------------------|----------|-----------||
G.|-----------------17p15p12-----------------|--15~~~~~~|-(15)~~~~~-||
Eb|---------16p14p12--------14p12---14b(15)--|-(15)~~~~~|-(15)~~~~~-||
Bb|------------------------------14----------|----------|-----------||
F.|------------------------------------------|----------|-----------||
C.|------------------------------------------|----------|-----------||

There are certainly other ways to finger this lead and I prefer to
simplify it by substituting the Eb--16p14p12- for the Eb--14p12---
It's a lot less hassle. Bb----------- Bb-------14-
