Tuning: Standard
-Bar lines are used to separate sections of music. They don t indicate
actual timing. The song is in 4/4 time.
The song is in F# minor. Guitar solo parts are primarily in F# pentatonic
minor (some parts in F# minor).
The tab of the guitar solo is a fairly loose rendering of the solo. Be
particularly wary of the fourth staff (measures 12-16 of the solo). "unin"
written on that staff means unintelligible , (meaning that I can t hear
exactly what the guitar is playing on that part).
Play all chords as 5th chords.
