play this part 4 times - joe uses some tremelo effect on a
very clean tone with chorus and some slap back delay.

Ok this part is really cool,
Joe uses like stereo pan and delay with staccato rhythm to
Give it that 'oriental' feeling. PLAY WITH ATTITUDE and
Even if u don't have delay it will u can still make it sound
Pretty cool.
(Tip: pick the low e notes if u don't have delay - listen to song)

This is kind of the interlude to the chorus below,
CHORUS

Ok that's the lead part, harmonized an octave above!
With synthesizer

|-5-5-5S7-4--------0----------|
|-----------0h3h5----5p3p0----|
|-----------------------------|
|-----------------------------|
Ok the above part is played a few times with slight variations at
The same time as "the chorus", I'm pretty sure Joe saturates
The tone with some wah.
FILL
~~
|-16-14-16-14-16-17----|

|----------------------| <--this fill is played in the next part.

play this with a whammy bar to get the notes...
listen and you will hear it
ok then its just a simple solo and some repetition of the above. I really
think satch has slowed down since the extremist (sigh)
oh well at least it makes it easier for us guys to work it out right?
enjoy.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official SATRIANI JOE tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
