The Road **Drop Tune Half Step** I saw on some website, that this song was "boring". I, however, think it is one of the better ones off this album (just my opinion). There is a point in the solo which I'm unsure about since I play on a 21-fret guitar, but I'm sure you'll figure it out. / = slide fret fingers to next note ~ = vibrato (shake note as if with whammy bar) + = bend for appropiate pitchshifts h = hammer on following note then release back to original Intro |-----2------3------3--------------------3---3--2---| |-----3------3------3----------------------3-3--3---| |---2-2------0------0--------------0------------2---| Repeat with |-0---------------2----------------0---0--------0---| 2nd guitar |----------2----3--------2-------2-2-3--------------| playing riff |--------0-------------3---3-2-0--------------------| below 2nd guitar + + + ~ ~ + + ~ ~ ~ |--------------------------------------------------------| |-/7--7-7-7----------------------9-----------------------| |-/7--7-7---7/0----7-9-10-10h9-7---9-7----7---10h9-7h9h7-| |---------------/9----------------------9---9------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| |--------------------------------------------------------| Verse 1 |-2---2---------------------3-3-3---3-----3-3-3--------| |-3-----3-------2---2-------3-3---3-3-----3-3---3------| |-2-------------2---2-------0-0-----0-----0-0----------| |-0-0-----------2---2-------2-------2-----0-0----------| |-------------0-0-0-0-----0-3-------3-----2------------| |-----------------------------------------3------------| Heading. .
