Trial by Fire KISS
-------------------- Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com Standard tuning Comments: The only interesting thing here is the lack of a solo. Apart from a few ballads I think this is really the only KISS song without a solo (even Heaven¥s on fire had an interlude of sorts). Simple riffs, slightly corny lyrics; a typical 80¥s song by Gene. 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 ** = 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 Rhythm Fig. 1 E|----------------------------------------------------| B|---------------------3----3-------------------------| G|--7\---2-------------0----2--------7----------------| D|--7\---2-------------0----0--------7----------------| A|--5\---0-------------x-------------5----------------| E|---------------------3------------------------------| E|----------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------3-----------------------------| G|--7\---2--------------0------------7----------------| D|--7\---2--------------0------------7----------------| A|--5\---0--------------x------------5----------------| E|----------------0--2--3-----------------------------| Rhythm Fig. 2 (light P.M. throughout) E|----------------------------------------------------| B|----------------------------------------------------| G|----------------------------------------------------| D|----------------------------------------------------| A|--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0--0-------------| E|-----------------------------------------0--2--3----| < -
