Tuning: Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb
This tab is for KISS's "Meet and Greet" acoustic version of this song.
There are two sets of tabs and chords; rhythm and lead guitar.
Feel free to play along with a YouTube video for better accuracy.
*Tuning is a half-step down, So technically all the
chords below should be tuned down in reality
(Dbm, B, Ebm, E/Eb, etc.) This would only apply
if you play without de-tuning your guitar.*
