*Jimi Hendrix played this song a half step flat from what Iam *
*showing you. So if you want to play along with the cd who will *
*have to move everything a fret left. *
*This song is pretty simple once you practice it alot.Its in *
*Em Pentatonic, just so you know where to play you solos. *

H= HAMER ON BUT IF YOU START SLOWLY AND TAKE YOUR TIME, IT WILL
\= SLIDE DOWN COME NATURALLY AND SOUND VERY PERCISE TO THE ACTUALL SONG.
*= MUTED NOTE
P= PULL OFF

THIS CAN BE ACHIVED BY BARING THE 7TH FRET WITH YOUR INDEX FINGER
AND USING YOUR MIDDLE AND RING FINGERS TO DO THE REST. IT LOOKS LIKE A HARD
RIFF BUT ITS ACUALLY VERY EASY AND ITS A GOOD WAY TO END SOLOS WITH THAT
CHARACTERISTIC BIT OF STYLE.
(VERSE)* I WILL SHOW YOU ALL THE CHORDS IN THE VERSE PART AND THE CHORDS ONLY.
YOU NOTICE THE JIMI PUTS IN THINGS BETWEEN AND DURING DIFFERENT CHORDS.
THESES ADD IN'S ARE BASED ON THE INTRO, SO IF YOU WANT TO DO THEM, STUDY THE
INTRO TO PLAY THEM YOURSELF. YOU MAY ALSO NOTICE THESE ARE THE SAME CHORDS IN
THE INTRO JUST PLAYED DIFFERENTLY.

OBVIOULSY THESE CHORDS ARE NOT IN TIME, BUT JUST LISTEN TO THE SONG AND FIND OUT
WHERE TO PUT THE CHORDS, PLAY THEM, AND HOW LONG YOU SHOULD PLAY THEM. FOR THE
SOLO JUST MAKE UP YOUR OWN OR FIND IT OUT BY PLAYING THE Em PENTA. AND LISTENING
TO THE SONG. I DONT KNOW MOST OF THE SOLO BECAUSE I PLAY MY OWN AND I FIND AT
TIMES IT SOUNDS BETTER. BUT I IMAGINE IT WOULDNT TAKE VERY LONG TO LEARN IT ANY
WAY. SO JUST HAVE FUN WITH IT, ITS A GREAT SONG!
