"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 ( <- this is Latin!! ):
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" bend (1,5 tones); being 4 - - - - - - - - - - -
in the 5th string it's necessary 5 - 5fbbr5(5) 7fbbr7(7)
to do a "reversed" (down) bend: 6 - - - - - - - - - - -
E-mail me what do you think about (solo and "alternative visions")

This work is dedicated to my love Eleonora.
That's all... greetings from Italy!
