Okay here it is. Watch out for Carlos' insane tremelo picking
exploits near the begining :-). Some of this material in the solo
may be unintelligable when played slowly for practice.
I just tab what I hear.
To begin with there are two confusing guitars layered
simultaneously over each other.
(b) = micro bend, fast small and quiet
5___=Unison bend, hold the 5 and bend the 7 up to the pitch of
the 5
7b
12b =without number after "b" means,
Bend quickly to anywhere to make note sound bent.
h - hammer on
p - pull off
b - bend string up
r - release bend
/ - slide up
\ - slide down
v = vibrato, more v's = more vibrato
t = right hand tap
x = play 'note' with heavy damping
------------------------------------------------------------------|
Lyrics
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
Ain't got no one tengo anadie
That I know of no tengo anadie
That I can depend on no tengo anadie
Ain't got no one
Got nobody
That I can depend on no tengo anadie
Ain't got nobody that I can depend on
No tengo anadie.
Do this at the 10 position (10th fret) if you like.

If anyone wants the chord accompainiment, I've told you before,
I can't do them properly yet I've only been playing for a year
its a pity cause the chords sound quite nice here.
Nevertheless, add some descents on the 5 fret blues
scale for embelishment. Look at intro for examples.
They might be triplets of notes on parallel strings i.e
I don't know.

Okay here's the insane bit: do as many of these
in 5 seconds as you possibly can without frying your wrist
or your strings or your mind etc. Tremelo pick( v.v fast
sounds like an uluating scream of notes) these note as
fast as is humanly possible I estimated about he does
about 36 to 40 by counting the number done
in one second (8 or 9) and multiplying this
by 4.5,the number of seconds sustained at this speed.
Its helps if you have a bouncing echo set up or reverb on high.
Do whatever you can that helps.

Go mental here, mess around going insane with 20's and 18's
bending like mad trilling anything you can, plug gaps with high
notebends and decsend on their scale often .
What's shown here is a guide as to the various
phrases Carlos plays. The number of bends etc shown may not be
completely accurate. Just show off.
