Europe - The Final Countdown
Tabbed by Jaxon


All of the tabs that I have seen for this song have been tabbed wrong
so I decided to tab it myself CORRECTLY!   *THIS IS 100% CORRECT*

        **PLEASE RATE THIS TAB SO OTHER PEOPLE WILL LOOK AT IT**

The key to playing this song fast is to use pull-offs! In the first part of
the solo, you have to hold your middle finger on the 12th fret on the B
string. You hold your index finger on the 10th fret on the E string. Then you
have to hold the 14th fret with your pinky on the E string, but you have to
pull-off with your pinky to make it so the 10th fret plays again. Using
pull-offs is how you play this song really fast. I didn't put in where every
pull-off so you'll have to play around with it but you'll figure it out. Keep
practicing it and you'll get it! You should really have a whammy bar to play
the vibratos. You should use the whammy bar when you see an atilda, that's one
of these: ~ You will also see / and \. That means to slide up or down. Make sure
that you play it slowly for a while until you find out where your fingers are
suppose to go. Sorry I wrote so much but I needed to, to make sure that everyone
who looks at this, plays it right.



In the first part, the number in parentheses is only played once.
