_Explanations for tablature ___________________________________
. Staccatto, don't let the note ring which is below
/ Slide up
: Repeat
R Rest (long)
r Rest (short)
+ Represent beats to help with the timing in "Chorus fig.E"
^ Represent first beats of each bars in "Chorus fig.E"
_______________________________________________________________
_Discussions ________________________________________________________________
For "Intro fig.A" I doubt if it's played one octave lower
Not so sure for the timing and beats of the end of "Pre-chorus rhyt.D1"
For "Chorus fig.E" I added some "^" and "+" signs which represent beats to
help with the timing. I can't figure out the fill played at the second line
before 9th beat
For "Solo rhyt.G" I can't be sure for the fills nor the timing
I can't figure out the fills in "Post-chorus rhyt.I" and not so sure for the
fills in "Rhyt.J"
The end of third line of "Final rhyt.K" is almost impossible for me to hear
so it's mostly imagination rather than what's played :(
For the end of the song just listen to the record, don't count what's written
here
