You Wanted the Best

YOU WANTED THE BEST (from the KISS CD "PSYCHO CIRCUS") -------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com Tuned down 1/2-step Comments: The massive guitar sounds on this tune make it a little hard to tab, especially the first solo. Make sure to damp effectively during the verse to get that stutter-like effect. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum Rhythm Fig. 1 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|----3------3----3-----------------------------| Gb|----0------2----0-----------------------------| Db|----0------0----0-----------------------------| Ab|----x------0----x-----------------------------| Eb|----3-----------3-----------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 Eb|----------------------------------------------| Bb|-----------------------------3-------3--------| Gb|--0h-2-----------------------0-------0----0---| Db|--0h-2-----------------------0-------0----0---| Ab|--0-----0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0----0--0----0---| Eb|----------------------------------------------| P.M. - - - - - - - > P.M.
