Eb|0-0-0-0-7-5-5-5-5-5h4-4-4-4-4-4-4-2-2-2-2--|
After Riff 4 when Billy says "Be there Forever..."
thats your que to play Riff 5:
Riff 5
Gb|----------------------------------------------------|
Db|----------------------------------------------------|
Ab|----------------------------------------------------|
Eb|9-9-9-9-9-9-9-0-0-0-0-0-0-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-7-7-|
Add this little Fill to the End of Riff 5 the last time its played:
Add-on to Riff 5
Gb|-----------------------------------|
Db|-----------------------------------|
Ab|-----------------------------------|
Eb|2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5-5-7-7-7-7h9--|
Then after that add-on go straight to Riff 2(and the alternate) after you play those a couple
of times play Riff 3 after the
Riff 3 play Riff 1 a couple of times
then your done.
You probably noticed i only use the Eb string through
the whole song. You can change this if you want of
course. Another note: This song was very hard for me
to tab Rhythm wise but it was as close as i could
get...use your imagination.
