*7 *8
Notes
*1 : it could be started from the classic 12 Em(Mi minore) chord
position, but this version is more Adrian Smith-like and the bend
in 8(3) seems to be done with the middle finger
*2 : here many versions are possible
*3 : I don't remember if these 15 are 2 or 3... the substance doesn't
change
*4 : "dot" (staccato) sound. Also without bend, making /17.
*5 : great unclean hard rock sound. The delay adds something on it.
*6 : can be 12(1). I put the 17 to prepare the hand for the last
part of the solo.
*7 : keep the previous bend bend and play.
*8 : hard to hear but that 15 17 is there.
Vorrei mandare grandemente affanculo le ragazze che fanno le carine e
ti salutano come se stessero per avere un orgasmo, poi le chiami a casa
e scopri che hanno il ragazzo e non possono uscire con te... ma andate
affanculo!!!
