"Oooooooooo...... Ooooooooooooo.......... Oooooooooooo"

-Repeat this for the verses and chorus, putting in the fiddly bits when you think is neccesary-

Minor Fill:

Twice in the song, Buckethead does a lush fill in that fits very well with the song. He only uses two notes, but

he does it so well with brilliant timing. I'll give you the two notes and when they crop up.. If you have the

Mp3, listen to it for perfection. Note: This is only my version of it..

"Knock knock Knockin' On Heavens Door"

Solo:

Right then, this was the first ever solo i learnt. I learnt it all on one string on an acoustic.. but when i got

a bit more practise and an electric guitar, i worked it out properly, by ear, and i think it's just about

perfect. This proves Buckethead isn't all speed, but can write amazing solos that remind me so much of Slash.

Then, repeat the chorus 16 (yes, i sat and counted), then 4 more times while Axl sings the "oooooo's." Then here's

the ending..

You have to be quick for the end bit..

I think that's all right.. it was the first full song i learnt and love playing it.. Finck's "fiddly parts"

sound brilliant with the song, and the solo is phenominal. I hope Axl pulls them all together to get a tour

going..

#Song: Knockin' On Heavens Door - Rock In Rio 2001
#Artist: Guns N Roses - New Line-Up
#Tabbed By: MrFace
#
#The whole song is basically the same as the Dylan original, there are just a few minor changes that
#make this version unique - especially the solo. The tab isn't perfect - Finck add's a lot of fiddly bits
#which i am yet to work out - but it's close enough. I played it along with the Mp3 and it sound great.
#
#Intro:
#
#Axl's Speech: "This Next Song.... I thought that.. since this is a new band.... And this next song is a timeless song....
#We would move a little closer to the original...... and do our own version.... of a song by Bob Dylan"

Then, repeat the chorus 16 (yes, i sat and counted), then 4 more times while Axl sings the "oooooo's." Then here's
the ending..

You have to be quick for the end bit..

I think that's all right.. it was the first full song i learnt and love playing it.. Finck's "fiddly parts"
sound brilliant with the song, and the solo is phenominal. I hope Axl pulls them all together to get a tour
going..
