COMIN' HOME (from the KISS CD "HOTTER THAN HELL")

Tuned down 1/2-step

Comments: Cool song. As fars as I can remember this is the only song where
Paul and Ace share songwriting credit. (Methinks that Ace is responsible for 
the arpeggiated parts with the descending root.) Plus, it is also special in
that it doesn't have a solo, which makes it a rarity in the KISS catalogue.
Of course, it's a good song (I think that this is one of KISS' strongest
albums songwriting-wise). There is a total of three guitars on this track.
Two are panned hard right and left as usual and there's one up the middle.


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
#(#) = Trill
**   = 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

COMIN' HOME 
Paul Stanley, Ace Frehley

[Rhy. Fig 1]

[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b] (2x)
It's been a month or two since I was sleepin' with you
I'm comin' home again
I've been to east and west, but baby I like best
The road that leads to you
[Rhy. Fig 3a w/ Rhy. Fig 3b]
Oh girl, it seems the whole wide world seems to say

[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b] (2x)
Hotels that all look the same
Just seem to drive me insane
But I can't get away
Until I receive a call that tells me that will be all
And then I hop a plane
[Rhy. Fig 3a w/ Rhy. Fig 3b]
It's true, I'm not sure if you knew
I'm comin' home to you

[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ Ry. Fig 5]
[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ Rhy. Fig 5 and Rhy. Fig 6]

[Rhy. Fig 3a w/ Rhy. Fig 3b]
Oh girl, it seems the whole wide world seems to say

[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b] (2x)
Hotels that all look the same
Just seem to drive me insane
But I can't get away
Until I receive a call that tells me that will be all
And then I hop a plane
[Rhy. Fig 3a w/ Rhy. Fig 3b]
It's true, I'm not sure if you knew
I'm comin' home to you
[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ Rhy. Fig 5] (2x)
I'm comin' home to you
I'm comin' home to you
[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ Rhy. Fig 5 and Rhy. Fig 6]
I'm comin' home, baby
