"Flight of the Wounded Bumble Bee" by Nuno Bettencourt

	You might be dissapointed to find out that the entire song is
played over a delay - effectively doubling the tempo (a trick to make it
sound like Nuno played it real fast.)  The drum sounds come from a drum
machine which was MIDI'd to the delay, which is set at about 200 ms. (1/5
of a second).  I'll show all the notes including ones created by the delay
for the first line and then omit them (the delayed notes) for the rest of the
piece.  Depending on your playing ability, I would suggest learning the
song with a delay closer to 240 - 270 ms..  Even with the delay making it
faster, 200 ms. is VERY fast -- I can only play the piece with the delay
set at 215 ms.

	For the rest of the solo (which I think was posted
	before,) Nuno plays all of the notes listed in time
	with the delay which creates a doubling harmony (It
	sounds like two notes at once.)

		I hope you already know this:

			P = pull-off
			H = hammer-on
