Verse

This is an adaptation of something I do a lot with Keyboard tunes. I take riffs that would go on the keyboard and do them on Guitar. Just about any VH style keyboard riff will translate to the Guitar just fine.

Remember *** This is a drop C tuning. Tune to a standard 440 tuning and drop your low 6th string to a "C".

Solo

Use the Phase 90 to give this some whirl if you like. On the Video I will talk about the techniques involved with making these notes sound VH'y and also give you some go to's that you can use in your melodic soloing. It's not about just the notes as always. It's about how you attack those notes. The little things count.

Back to a Standard Guitar tuning ... E, A, D, G, B, E

I have broken the solo up into its individual sections for ease of reading

From here it goes into another verse and bridge no different than the others. And another chorus with slight variation. Not worth tabbing as it should be pretty easy to get the idea of the Choruses by now.

Below are the outro leads and song ending.

Outro / Song ending

I spoke in correctly on the video for this portion. I had forgotten that this ending portion goes back to Mixolydian. The outro leads part 1 below are over a chord pattern that's very similar to the Kick in chord pattern from the beginning of the song. Sort of a, C, Bb, F thing.

Outro leads part 1: These are over the Kick in chord pattern basically.

Leads

These are what I was referring to on the video when I said they are over the same chord pattern as the Solo is. The C, Am7, F, G pattern.
