Tuning: Standard, E A D G B E
Bending with the whammy bar:
The lead guitar player bends with the whammy bar in the lead line. He plays 0 on the open b-string as he
pushes down on the whammy bar, bending the note down about a half step. He then frets the the 7th fret with
hammer-on while still holding the whammy bar down about a half-step, letting the whammy bar slowly come back
up to the F# on the 7th fret on b-string.
Fingering: the fingering for the lead chords is also tricky. Sliding into the E chord will be tricky unless
you fret the A chord with your ring finger barring the A and D strings on the 7th while using your middle
finger to fret the G string on the 6th.
