_____________________________________________________________________________
Notes:
-This is a tab of the original version of "Emergency", from the "Demolition"
CD. I had intended to also include Jackie's guitar solo from the 2005
re-recording of the song, but I don't have the new version transferred
onto a CD yet. It might be added to the tab at a later date.
-For the verses, Kelly uses the following E string root note chords.
C D E
E --------------------|
B --------------------|
G --------------------|
D --10----12----14----|
A --10----12----14----|
E --8-----10----12----|
I tabbed that part using A string root note chords because it fit the width
of the page easier, allowing for four measures across. Cris plays it using
A string chords, like in the tab. Just substitute the above chords (they're
the same voicing, just a different fretboard position) for the verses, if
you prefer them.
-Notes inside square brackets (eg. 3rd staff of Intro) indicate pitch
rather than fretting position. These will always come after a bent note
and a "hold bend" indication. Strike the notes that are inside the
brackets while holding the bend.
-A bent note followed by a single note inside round brackets (see Outro) is
played the same way. (eg. --7^(9)--(9)-- Play a whole tone bend at the 7th
fret; strike the string again while holding the bend.)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
^...bend (w=whole tone,s=semi,q=quarter) /...slide up
h...hammer on \...slide down
p...pull off =...hold note
hb..hold bend ~...vibrato
o
o...repeat
