Heavy Metal Sammy Hagar
Song: Heavy Metal
Artist: Sammy Hagar
tab by: John Clark
Hey folks,
I've seen this song tabbed wrong on the opening riff that's used throughout the
song, the 3rd fret C note pull-off on the A string. I thought it was the C, (which
is the minor 3rd to A) but when I listened closer it's actually the 4th fret C#
note (which is the major 3rd to A) that is a pull-off to the open A string and is
consistent throughout the song. So I thought I'd do my own tab and correct it. Try
it, its right!!!
