WHAT MAKES THE WORLD GO ?ROUND (from the KISS CD "UNMASKED")
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com
Standard tuning
Comment: Lots of stuff going on here. Pretty much the same progression
througout the verse, but the bass changes the mood by going to a pumping
eight-note rhythm halfway through. Lots of variations in the final chorus
too.
Key:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)
b^ = bend (1/2 step)
b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb = pre-bend
r = release-bend
t = tap with righthand finger
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
~ = Vibrato
* = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
** = Artificial Harmonic
x = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\) = Dive w\bar
(/) = Release w\bar
Tp = Tap w\plectrum
