FINISH WHAT YA STARTED Van Halen

from: March 1992 Guitar World

In this song ^=1/4 step bend

/= slide up

\=slide down

~= vibrato

--20--30--- two notes together= pull offs

I have not looked at enough of the tab on here to be sure I

used standard notation for the group, bot it is all pretty self-explanatory.

The only problem I had was notating hammer ons because a 1 to 3 hammer on

looked like a fretted note at 13!! oh well... hope someone out there gets some

use out of this...
