This is my favourite song on the album "the blessed hellride". I'll have a go at
tabbing the solo for you guys but it's just something for you to base it round
cause it sure as hell won't be correct. this is ZAKK WYLDE on the guitar for the damn thing.
the tuning is (low to high) Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
/ = slide
+ = palm mute
~ = vibrato
* = pinched harmonic

repeat the last bend as many times as needed. again this is only a guide line
but i've tried to make the best job i could of it.
Fill 1(to get the squealing zakk gets, what ever shape you use to get pinched
harmonics use that shape and use tremelo picking on the appropriate string this
produces a harmonic sound on each string so effectively your playing all this
fill as a harmonic)

Fill 1 is used at these points:the end of the first and second chorus, goin into
the second verse and goin into the second chorus. the harmonics your here in the
second verse are on the 2nd fret g string, and a majority of the slides in the
song are to and from the 19th fret.
have fun and adapt the solo to how you see fit any comments and suggestions
and/or abuse for such a crap tab can be sent to my e-mail address at blastedkrap@rock.com.
