Kotzen Richie - She guitar tab
artist: Richie Kotzen
album: "Richie Kotzen's Fever Dream", RoadRunner Records, 1990.
song: "She"
tabbed by: Vlad
Here is my tab of this Richie Kotzen tune
I think this will give you some help to start off.
I didn't tabbed some second guitar licks, that were done in the bridge and
chorus.
They are pretty easy, and I think you should be able to figure them out.
As for the solo, well, I might be nineteen years old, but Richie was pretty
fast at this age.
Kotzen's strong vibrato its just too great.
For figuring this out, I used as much musical theory as much as I did use my
ears. Hope you'll like it.
If you have some ideeas, corrections, please send them to my email address:

end solo.
then the bridge is done once again, and the chorus riff three more times,
when
a Richie starts another solo for some sort of outro, for which I don't have
now
the patience to tab down. I think this will give you some help to start off.
Hope you enjoy!
