A World Without Heroes KISS
-------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com Standrad tuning Comments: The clean electric which carries the verse here has an almost bell-like quality to it. Very nice. The acoustic, which sounds more like a 6- than a 12-string, comes in during the chorus and solo and just strums along quietly in the background. Great solo, obviously by Paul, that really screams. Has a standard move of Paul's when he plays a D-major arpeggio (which he likes to add the 4th to) in the E-minor tonality. Note that the D minor from the first chorus changes to a Bb for the second. Nice touch. (They are parallel chords.) 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 ** = 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 Rhythm Fig. 1 (clean electric) E|--12*------------------------------------------| B|--12*------------------7*----------------------| G|--12*------------------7*----------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| E|--5*-------------------------------------------| B|--5*----------------------------------7*-------| G|--5*----------------------------------7*-------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 (clean electric) E|--12*------------------------------------------| B|--12*------------------7*----------------------| G|--12*------------------7*----------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| E|--5*-------------------------------------------| B|--5*------------------7*-----------------------| G|--5*------------------7*-----------------------| D|-----------------------------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------| E|-----------------------------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 3 (clean electric) E|--7------------------7-------------------------| B|--8------------------7-------------------------| G|--9------------------7-------------------------| D|--9------------------7-------------------------| A|--7------------------7-------------------------| E|--0------------------0-------------------------| < -
