Key to my TAB
Some of Joe's sounds are complex to describe in simple ascii characters. I've
tried to include all of them while trying to stop it from getting too complex
to follow. I hope I've succeeded. Please tell me if you think this system is
hard/easy to follow.

P - Pull-off: Place both fingers on the notes to be sounded. Strike the
first note and without picking, pull the finger off to sound the second
(lower) note.
H - Hammer-on: Strike the first (lower) note, then sound the higher note
with another finger by fretting it withot picking.
P.M.- Palm-Mute: The note is partially muted by the right hand lightly
touching the string(s) just before the bridge.
/ - Slide: Strike the first note and then slide the same fretted finger
up or down to the second note. Example: 2/4 is to slide from the 2nd
fret up to the 4th and the fourth fret note is played.
2/(4) is to slide from the 2nd fret up to the fourth fret, the 4th
fret is not played.
2/ means to slide from the 2nd fret up the neck of the guitar to an
indefinite point. 9/ means to slide from the 9th fret down also to
an indefinite point.
~~ - Vibrato: The string is vibrated by rapidly bending and releasing the
note with the left hand or tremolo bar.
X - Muffled strings: A percussive sound is produced by laying the left hand
across the strings withouu depressing them and striking them with the
right hand.
t - Tremolo bar: The pitch of the note or chord is dropped or raised a
specified number of steps using the tremolo bar.
Example: 7 t< 3 indicates to play the 7th fret and then lower the
note to the same pitch as the note on the 3rd fret. 3 t< 0 would be a
dive bomb. 5 t> 7 would be to raise the pitch to the 7th fret.
sh - Semi-Harmonic: The note is fretted normally and a harmonic is produced
by adding the edge of the thumb or the tip of the index finger on the
right hand to the normal pick attack. High volume or distortion will
allow for a greater variety of harmonics.
harm - Natural harmonic: Strike the note while the left hand lightly touches
the string over the fret indicated.
T - Tapping: Hammer ('tap') the fret indicated with the right hand index
or middle finger and pull off to the note fretted by the left hand.
X>Y - Strike note X and bend up to Y. The string is hit when Y is reached.
X>(Y) - Strike note X and bend up to Y.
Example: 5>(7)>(5) indicates a bend from the 5th fret up to the 7th
fret and then released back to the 5th. The string is only hit once.
3>(3.5)>(3) would indicate a blues bend and release which is a small
very common bend. It's not a one fret bend but half of that.
If you get confused, basically () notes aren't picked.
rake - Drag the pick across the strings with a single downward or upward
motion.
