Now...there's a mandolin in the song and sounds pretty good also the rhythm
and
actually all the guitars are hard to listen so maybe are wrong i got like
two months
with this tab and i finally decided to share it with the world and now is
a better tab than two months ago so here it is,the most difficult tab
that i ever made just 75% of accuracy and even less in the chorus but always
with good intentions anyway the solo is kind of easy so very soon will be
here
just a litlle fills in the song. One more thing i just want to dedicate this
song to
the women of my life MIRIAM (yeah i know who cares?) but i have made a lot
of
transcriptions of scorpions so this is a little whim thanks to all the
scorpions fans
around the world you know that scorpions is the best band of rock in all
history so
let's support'em if someone is reading this please mailme i want to know
your opinion
about my tabs
thanks
