Song: GOD GAVE ROCK AND ROLL TO YOU II Artist: KISS Album: REVENGE -------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, kfemil@telia.com Tuned down 1/2-step Comments: Gene varies himself a lot on this track and as a result, it's pretty much a full tab. I've chosen to divide it into the different sections though to make it easier to piece together. John Claude's tab of this song unfortunately only listed the root notes for each chord thereby missing the wealth of variation that the song contains. No part of his original tab has been used in this one. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum
