Notes:
-4/4 time, bar lines do indicate timing
-dots (...) located under any staff are for timing, and indicate where the
downbeats (1234) fall
-A few trouble spots to be aware of:
1.Some of the guitar rhythms tabbed might be a bit different from what's on
the recording, because sometimes it's hard to hear the exact rhythm being
played. Examples are Staff #2 and Staff #4, so have a listen for yourself
to decide on the exact rhythm the guitars are playing throughout.
2.Unsure about measures 5-7 of the guitar solo, couldn't hear the part very
clearly.
3.2nd measure of the first staff: Those first two double stops could be a
pulloff. |-2p0- I couldn't determine for sure if it is or isn't.
|-2p0-
^...bend (s=semi-tone, w=whole tone) /...slide up
r...release bend \...slide down
hb..hold bend =...hold note
p...pulloff ~...vibrato
o pm..palm mute
o...repeat (the part between repeat symbols)
