Black Sabbath - Solitude guitar tab
From: Jonadz
Subject: TAB: "Solitude" (Black Sabbath) - completed
Okay, here's all of Black Sabbath's Solitude -- except bass and flute,
but I've got the lyrics here. A really easy song to play, slow and
beautiful, too.
For the last verse play the G and F chords that are shown in the last
bar of the second interlude, everywhere else it's the chords shown in
the intro (including most of the end).
It's in 6/8 time, and I tried to tab it accordingly, but some hammers,
pulls, slides, and 16th-notes kind of messed it up; but other than that,
the timing's pretty accurate (-- = 1 8th-note).
KEY:
X Mute string
(6) Ghost note
6h9 Hammer on note
9p6 Pull-off note
6s9 Slide to note
/ \ Slide up to/down from infinity
6b9 Bend to note
9r6 Release to note
<9> Play note while bent
^^ Hold bend
~~ Tremolo
