The same spacing will give the timing for any of the arpeggio staves. -Basic chord changes are printed above the staff, they won't always match exactly with what's in the tab. Example: 4th measure of the Intro -- the chord above the staff is F#, but the arpeggio part isn't playing just a plain F#. A chord finder lists the chord as F# eleventh w3 no5 (R 3 4 b7). ^...bend (w=whole tone) /...slide up h...hammer on \...slide down r...release bend <>..natural harmonic p...pulloff ~...vibrato x...muted note =...hold note (This file is the transcriber's own work and represents their interpretation of the song.)
