This most requested song! This one for Jon C. from the list!

Note that all vibrato Joe uses in this song is pretty much whammy
bar vib (~~~~~~) as opposed to doing it with his hand, a very
good way to get that distinctive sound!

Hi to all my friends on the list :)

this t<1/2 means you dip the trem bar slightly just before
hitting the note and then releasing, difficult to get the timing
at first!

The next 16 bars are faded in chords switching between E and
B with various rhythmic bits happening, call me old fashioned but
unless you guys and girls want it: I'll skip to the solo! :)

Note: Lots of harmonics in this section, let them all ring out for as
long as you can!

          Hard to get these 
       sounding at the same time

***
Special note on this last part: First of all I've notated it in
one bar for readability when from start to finish it's actually 
4 bars. It's those 2 harmonics, pulled up with the whammy bar until
about 2.5 tones above where they started (pretty much all the way up
on the bar) and then dipped until slack. Just before they get to the
highest pitch, the b string harmonic gets silenced, whether by string
damping or some audio phenomena...hard to tell :) Hope this helps!
