  • MAIN RIFF(S)
    - the following is the way i play it and i'm convinced
    Adam plays it this way too
  • - blues style: quarter bend (i.e. ^) the notes whenever
    possible for accenting
    - i know for sure Adam uses an autowah, along with
  • crunch-type distortion from his Marshall, with reverb
    - faint delay/echo, but noticeable nonetheless.

  • - my friend, who is a slightly better guitarist, decides
    to play it this way with a slight variation at the end
    which shows his style... but yeahh choose one...

    "TAKE THE LONG RAOD AND WALKKK ITTTTT YESSS!!"
  • - same as the previous riffs except no autowah,
    reverb is higher and delay/echo is more noticeable
    and set longer and accurately to fit with the tempo...
  • or - these same notes are played but in a way where delay
    isn't used but sounds as if it is (live version)

  • KEY
     
    h - pick left note and hammer on to right note
  • p - " " " " pull off " " "
    x2 - repeat twice or whatever number is there... you're smart enough to
    work it out aye?
  • ^ - quarter bend or slight bend i.e if the note is a G you're aiming to
    bend to the note roughly between G and G#
    ^^ - semitone bend i.e. if the note is a G you're aiming to bend roughly
  • to the note G# or Ab which is one semitone or half a tone higher
    than the picked tone (G).
    ^^^- tone bend i.e. if the note is G you're aiming to bend roughly to the
  • note A which is one tone higher than the picked tone (G).
    ` - accompanies a bend. pick the note while bent to the aimed note
    - downbend, when accompanying a bend and means that the note should be
  • bended back or released back to its original note.
    when not accompanying a bend follows the same rules as normal bends
    but in reverse effect i.e. on the B-string: 9> means to bend a
  • quarter up then pick then bend back or release down while note is
    sounding. The same applies for 9>> or 9>>> accept the notes are
    bent a semitone up then picked or a tone up then picked respectively
  • / - pick the first note then slide up to the second note, picking the
    second note is optional
    \ - pick the first note then slide down to the second note, picking the
  • second note is optional
    ~ - vibrato, the fret finger is shaken to create the effect of a note
    "shaking" in pitch.
  • ~~ - wide vibrato, the note is slightly bended (usually less than a
    quarter bend or otherwise indicated) repeatedly to create a more
    dramatic vibrato
  • x - pick the strings while muting them with fret hand to create a
