Straight to Hell Solo By Great Big Sea transcribed by zapp7 This is one of my favorite songs to play with friends. The solo in the actual song is a mandolin so I decided to figure out the solo by ear for the guitar. This was accomplished by playing the song at 50% speed in windows media player and working out each note. The notes that repeat themselves one after the other are played very quickly on the mandolin, so you can vary this if you wish. |------------------------------------------7----------------------8-7--------| |-8-8-8---------------8---------------8-10---10-8---8-10-10-10-10-----10-8-8-| |-------7-9-7---7-7-9---7-9-7---7-7-9-------------7--------------------------| |-------------9---------------9----------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------7----------------------8-7----10-10-10-8-7-| |-8---------------8---------------8-10---10-8---8-10-10-10-10-----10--------------| |---7-9-7---7-7-9---7-9-7---7-7-9-------------7-----------------------------------| |---------9---------------9-------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------------------------------------------------------------------| |-----------------------------7-------------| |-10-8-8-8---------------8-10---10-8---8----| |----------7-9-7---7-7-9-------------7------| |----------------9--------------------------| |-------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------| End with this: |--------------| |-8------------| |---9-7--------| |-------9-5----| |--------------| |--------------|
