I PLEDGE ALLEGIANCE TO THE STATE OF ROCK AND ROLL (from the KISS album "PSYCHO CIRCUS")
-------------------------------------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark (emil@kisstabs.com)
& Mark Perillo (mark@kisstabs.com)
Standard tuning
Comments: Pretty cool stuff, it sounds strange to me though. The chord
sequence feels backwards somehow. Great solo by Paul (that wide vibrato
is a dead give-away).
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
