"Back In Black"
by AC/DC
from the 1980 album BACK IN BLACK
Good song, and is perfect.
KEY:
T = play with thumb
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
^ = bend ^q = quarter tone ^h = half tone ^F = full tone
if letter is above the fret #, note is bent THEN picked
h = hammer
p = pull-off
g = grace note - written above note to be 'graced'
~ = vibrato
Oh, and X's mean make that chopping noise that Angus Young makes in the song.
I shouldn't really need to tab that part out...
Opening riff (played behind verses as well):
