NOTES.
1. This TAB only denotes the chords and in no way has attempted to capture the wild, soaring Lead & Bass
riffs, throughout this song. These riffs, could easily be the subject of separate TAB’s.
2. “…Former Journey singer Robert Fleischman provided vocals on Vinnie Vincent Invasion's self-titled
debut album. The record included primarily the style of glam metal, with much of it re-worked versions
of demos Vincent recorded in 1982 with former New England members Hirsch Gardner, Gary Shea, and
Jimmy Waldo under the band name Warrior, with Vincent essentially replacing John Fannon as guitarist and
vocalist. …” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinnie_Vincent_Invasion
3. The final 3.0 minutes of oscillating conjugal feedback and guitar wailing, have been omitted, for
clarity. :-}
4. The rhythm on this track, emulates the strummed Bass notes in the Am passages, by alternating the
Am and Am7 XX2010 = C/E. :-R
