Van Halen - Im The One guitar tab

#

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

TABLATURE:

Van Halen - I'm the one

from the album Van Halen

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

h = hammer on w\ =dive whammy bar (wb)

p = pull off w\/ =dive wb and pull up

/ = slide up 7b(9) = bend full step

\ = slide down 7b(9)r(7) = bend full step and release

~ = vibrato T = tab with right hand

{harm.} = play natural harmonics

{A.H.} = play artificial harmonics (with thumb and pick)

general advise for playing Ed's songs: pick, hammer on and pull off as hard

as you can!

effects used: MXR Phase 90

If you think there's something to improve feel free to do so, I'll be happy

to learn about it!
