Revelations by Santana Notes: A warm clean tone to start off quiet then build to great crescendo.Start with volume low then increase when you want *but* gradually and logically. Use small amount of reverb. This is basically a transcription of what Carlos has played, feel free to simplify or change it. Sometimes I find it better not to completely stick to a more complex tab like at the end and I just try to make something easier up. h - hammer on p - pull off b - bend string up r - release bend / - slide up - slide down v - vibrato more v's=more vib t - right hand tap x - play 'note' with heavy damping (0:01) e----------------------------------------------------------------| B-12h13r12--------12h13p12------12h13p12------------------5-6----| G----------9---------------9--------------7/9 9p7-----7----------| D----------------------------------------------------------------| A----------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------| (0:22) e----------------------------------------------------------------| B--8h10 ---8h10p8-----------------12h13r12--------12h13r12-------| G-----------------7/9--7/9vv---------------9---------------9-----| D----------------------------------------------------------------| A----------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------| "gb" means very quick bend up to note indicated e-----------------------------------------------5----------------| B--12h13r12/17p15--13gb15--13--10--------------------------------| G----------------------------------7br5---5--7b----7---5---------| D--------------------------------------(7)---------------7---5h7v| A----------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------| (0:42) e---5--7--8--7h8-------7h8p7--7---5--7---------------------------| B--------------------------------5-------10-8h10v--------7bp5----| G-------------------------------------------------7/9-9------7---| D----------------------------------------------------------------| A----------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------| e----5-----------------------------------------------------------| B----------------------------------------10h12h13-12h13--13h15v--| G-7b8--(7bp5)---7p5h7p5------------------------------------------| D-----------(7)--------7--5-----------9 10-----------------------| A---------------------------7--5---8-----------------------------| E----------------------------------8b----------------------------| (1:13) hard e------15-12bvvv-*//(0)*------------------------5-----------| B---15-------------------13b15-10---------------------------|Repeat G-12-------------------------------7b8-5---5-7b8--7--5------|From D----------------------------------------7-------------7---5|Start A-----------------------------------------------------------|Once E-----------------------------------------------------------| (1:57) Tempo Increases Rhythm Change (2:05) e--------------------10(10)--15--10b12r10b12r10------------------| B-10h12-13-13-15---10---------------------------10h12-13---------| G----------------------------------------------------------------| D----------------------------------------------------------------| A----------------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------------| e----10h12p10----10--15---10h12---------| B-------------10------------------------| Repeat section G --------------------------------------| D---------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------| (2:29) e---------------------------------------| B--------10h12-13-13--------------------| G---------------------------------------| D---------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------| (2:31) e-----------------------------------------------------------------| B-13-10-----------------------------------------------------------| G------12---------------------------------------------------------| D--------12b13-12b13r10---10--------------------------------------| A----------------------12--(12)-(12)--(10/12)-(10/12)-------------| E----------------------------------------------------(12)--(7)-(5)| (2:37) e-12-12-12--15-12-12-----------------12-| B----------------------15-15-1512-15----| G---------------------------------------| D---------------------------------------| A---------------------------------------| E---------------------------------------| e-12-------1212--12-----1212-------------------------------| B-- ---15b-----15b-----15-----12h15-----(15)---------------| G-------------------------- --------14b15---14-12----------| D------------------------------------------------14-12h14--| A----------------------------------------------------------| E----------------------------------------------------------| *Carlos descends like this twice but the 2nd time it is very quiet, you don't have to play it again.
