Loveâ??s a Deadly Weapon   KISS

 


 



 


 

 
 --------------------

 


 Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com


 Standard tuning


 Comments: Pretty much indicative of Gene¥s late 80¥s output. Fast riffs


 that aren¥t very exciting. Blistering lead work that is standard 80¥s


 fare as well. Can¥t say that I¥m very confident in my accuarcy on the lead


 work (especially the tapped middle part).


 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
