[Coda](Wailing Lead) (F) (D) (Lead guitar dive bombs and spirals into phased feedback, Followed by hi-hat rolls, with wailing, rising and falling, phased repetitive feedback for 3.0 mins) [Stop] [End] NOTES. 1. This TAB only denotes the chords and in no way has attempted to capture the wild, soaring Lead & Bass riffs, throughout this song. These riffs, could easily be the subject of separate TAB’s. 2. “…Former Journey singer Robert Fleischman provided vocals on Vinnie Vincent Invasion's self-titled debut album. The record included primarily the style of glam metal, with much of it re-worked versions of demos Vincent recorded in 1982 with former New England members Hirsch Gardner, Gary Shea, and Jimmy Waldo under the band name Warrior, with Vincent essentially replacing John Fannon as guitarist and vocalist. …” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinnie_Vincent_Invasion 3. The final 3.0 minutes of oscillating conjugal feedback and guitar wailing, have been omitted, for clarity. :-} 4. The rhythm on this track, emulates the strummed Bass notes in the Am passages, by alternating the Am and Am7 XX2010 = C/E. :-R
