[ preview ends at bar 10 — the interactive score has the rest ]

    Main Lead Line Starts @ 0:18

    Main Lead Line Starts again @ 0:52 during PreChorus then leads into solo during Chorus
    First Chorus Solo @ 1:09 (alot more bending and slides here to give it the stank)

    Main Lead Line Starts again right after chorus but ends on this progression

    Then this repeats in the 2nd verse 3 times                                          x3

    Ends on this line moving into the prechorus

    then this in the 2nd prechrous                                                                x4

    2nd Chorus Solo is kind of all ove the place starts something like this (listen to file)

    Then theres just a flurry of notes that descend rapidly down the B major scale
    Then there is the main line that follows through to the end here

More Than Tabs

Hear every part, read it in the notation you prefer, and practise it at your own tempo

Audio Playback

Play the whole score back, or step through it note by note. Every track is synthesised from its own instrument, so a drum line sounds like drums and a piano part sounds like a piano.

Dual Notation

Switch any track between tablature, standard notation and note names — or show them stacked, aligned bar for bar. The same score, in whichever language you read fastest.

Practice Tools

Slow the tempo until a passage sits under your fingers, set the play range to loop the bar you keep missing, and mute the tracks you want to play yourself.
