"Man of Sorrows" Solo
Artist@Song@Album: B.Dickinson @ Man of Sorrows @ Accident of Birth
Tab by: Francesco Spina
E-mail: francescospn@hotmail.com

Legenda ( 
fb    = full bend (1 tone bend)
br    = bend release (play the note already "bended" and release)
/ @  = slide on @ slide off
L     = legato ("hammer on" or "pull off")
x     = indefined note 
(note)= hold the note without playing it
*     = tab note, see the end of the solo for explanation

Examples:1: 12fbbr12 means:play the 12, "fullbend" it ("14" sound)
            and release again to 12.
         2: 12L10L12 means: play 12, "pull off" to 10 and
            "hammer on" on 12.
         3: 5/12 means: play 5 and slide on 12 (this is a 
            sort of "legato" too).      

IMPORTANT: as you can guess listening the song, this solo MUST
           be played with intensity, note by note.

Notes:
*1: it's a undefined sound. I think it's
    a mixed pick-hand slide beginning
    from 12.

*2: it's not the easier way to make it.    3 - - - - -  10 - - -
    I think is best the version above      4 - - - - 10  - - - -
    but you can try also like this:        5 - - - 7 - - - - - -  
                                           6 - - 8 - - - - - - - 

*3 & *4: the version above it's easy
    but has never gained trust in my       
    "madness" mind. I prefer to play       
    a"mega" (x02210@1)bend (1,5 tones); being     4 - - - - - - - - - - -
    in the 5th string it's necessary     5 - 5fbbr5(5) 7fbbr7(7)
    to do a"reversed" (x02210@1)(down) bend:      6 - - - - - - - - - - -
