xVan Halen hot for teacher. Tabbed by ryan mullan [email protected]. what i think is the best song from the fantastic album 1984, and a great example of a trademark EVH solo. enjoy P.S if you dont have the song this will be very difficult, go buy it! Key: --- [Intro] (I've deliberately left out hammer/pull notation because they are too obtrusive in such numbers. I've given an example of what to do) E -----------------------------------------------------------| B -----------------------------------------------------------| G -----------------------------------------------------------| D -----------------------------------------------------------| A -X\\--0^3^7-12^7^3^0^3^7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3--| E -----------------------------------------------------------| E ---------------------------------------------------| B ---------------------------------------------------| G ---------------------------------------------------| D ---------------------------------------------------| A -0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9-| E ---------------------------------------------------| E --------------------------------------------------------| B --------------------------------------------------------| G --------------------------------------------------------| D -12-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3-| A --------------------------------------------------------| E --------------------------------------------------------| E ---------------------------------------| B ---------------------------------------| G ---------------------------------------| D -0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9~-| A ---------------------------------------| E ---------------------------------------| E ----------------------------------------------------------------------------| B ----------------------------------------------------------------------------| G -12-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-5-9-12-9-5-0-5-9-12-9-5-0-3-7-12-7-3-0-3-7-12-| D ----------------------------------------------------------------------------| A ----------------------------------------------------------------------------| E ----------------------------------------------------------------------------| E -----------------| B -----------------| G -7-3-0-5-9-12-9~-| D -----------------| A -----------------| E -----------------| E -12-5-8-12-8-7-5---------------------------------------------------------| B -----------------8-12-8-7-5----------------------------------------------| G ----------------------------8-12-8-7-5---------------------2-------------| D ---------------------------------------8-12-8-7-5----------2-------------| A ---------------------------------------------------8-7-5-0-0-------------| E -------------------------------------------------------------------------| E --------------------------------------------------------------------------| B --------------------------------------------------------------------------| G ----------------5--4-------1--2--1-/2--1/2--------------------------------| D ----------------5--4-------1--2--1-/2--1/2--------------------------------| A --------------------------------------------------------------------------| E -2-2--2-2--2-2-----------2-------------------2-2--2-2--2-2--2-2--2-2--2/--| E -----------------------------------------------------------------------------| B -----------------------------------------------------------------------------| G -10\\--7--4---1--2--1/2----------------------------5--4-4-------1--2--1-/2---| D -10\\--7--4---1--2--1/2----------------------------5--4-4-------1--2--1-/2---| A -----------------------------------------------------------------------------| E -------------------------2--2-2--2-2--2-2--2-2--2-----------2----------------| E ---------------| B ---------------| G -4--4---4----5-| D -4--4---4----2-| A -4--4---4----0-| E -0--0---0------| [Main riff] (clean) E -------------------------------------------------------| B -------------------------------------------------------| G -5---5^2---2---5---5^2-2---5^2-----------5--8\\7---2---| D -2---2-----2---2---2---2---2-------------5--8\\7---2---| A ---------------------------------0^5^6^7---------------| E -------------------------------------------------------| (repeat clean riff x 3) \"Oh wow man... wait a second, man - whaddaya think the teacher's gonna look like this year ?\" \"My butt, man !\" E ---------------------------------------| B ---------------------------------------| G -5---5^2---2---5---5^2-2---5---5^2---0-| D -2---2-----2---2---2---2---2---2-----0-| A ---------------------------------------| E ---------------------------------------| \"Ohhhh !\" [Main riff] (distorted) E --------------------------------------------------| B --------------------------------------------------| G -2----------2----------2-----------------5--8\\7--| D -2----------2----------2-----------------5--8\\7--| A -0---3-3-0--0---3-3-0--0---3-0---0^5^6^7----------| E --------------------------------------------------| [Verse 1:] (with distorted riff) T-t-teacher stop that screamin', teacher don't you see ?
