So, I was trying to find a tab for this song, and there's no tabs! Which baffles me, since this is such an
and easy song! There's several version of this song, but the one I'm going to tab out is the 18 minute
version from Skull and Roses (Which I believe was a Live/Studio album.) This is my first tab, constructive
criticism is welcomed and encouraged.
So basically, there's a five minute drum solo, and then the Bob alternates between a D and E chord as
Jerry solo's for half the song, then the verse and chorus, then more soloing,then a weird out of tune part,
and then the final verse and chorus with a cool ending lick. So here it Goes! I'll be tabbing the rhythm
part and the ending lick.)
Tuning: Standard
Key: E
Legend:
15p14= Pull off
12h15= Hammer on
~= let ring or vibrato
5/7= Slide
x= Strum muted note
Intro: Solo area:
e|-0~-------(Bass lick)|--------------------------------------||
B|-0~------------------|------------------------------8--10~--||
G|-1~------------------|--x7/9--9--x7/9--9--x7/9--9---7--9~--o||
D|-2~------------------|--x7/9--9--x7/9--9--x7/9--9---5--7~--o||(Play for as long as you want)
A|-2~------------------|--x5/7--7--x5/7--7--x5/9--7-----------||
E|-0~------------------|--------------------------------------||
You can play that, or you can play different inversions of the D and E chord.
Every now and then it gets quieter.

Play the last 4 chords before going back to the solo area riff
They play the solo area riff for while before gradually becoming quieter and then louder and out of tune.
My suggestion is to just fiddle around with a bunch of chords for the out of tune part.

There is obviously a lot of different ways you can play this. Yes I know it's unorganized, but you really
just have to listen to the song to play this and get the timing right but this is something you can start
with! Thank you for your time!
