SHOT OF LOVE  by  KING'S X

                        from Out Of The Silent Planet

Transcribed/Deciphered by Brian King

Notes:  I have made this transcription for one guitar.
If you listen closely you will hear an acoustic buried in the
mix, but I have left this out.  Ther is also a sitar at end,
after the solo; this is also omitted.  If I have missed any
notes, they are so minor that Ty probably does not even play
them himself live - so don't worry about it. I have included
timing notes above the staff, using the standard system of
1e&a 2e&a 3e&a 4e&a, where each one is a sixteenth note (or rest.)
Therefore, 1&2&3&4& means straight eighth notes, and 1234 means
straight quarter notes.  The numbers coincide with the onset of
a note or rest.  Triplets are noted by: 1 b c, 2 b c... where each
note is a third of a beat.  The time signature for Shot Of Love is
4/4, noted at the beginning of each staff.  NOTE:  TUNE YOUR 6TH
STRING DOWN TO D!  Have fun.  My Internet address is:
gt6851a@prism.gatech.edu.  Call me if you need help.  Does anyone
want a BASS TRANSCRIPTION for this song?  If so, let me know...
