This is the riff that appears half way through

You have to listen for the changes in time - rhythm varies on each
repeat, but overall very easy riff to play

Lenny Kravitz - Fields of Joy
       (according to Ralf <[email protected]>,
        SOLO by Andreas <[email protected]>)

Thanx to Andreas  <[email protected]> whose frame I am using
- unfortunately my transcription of the TABs and chords is different, so
this is my version of how I perceive the really excellent song. (Ralf):

Special chords for the middle part:
          EAdgbe
B(VII)    799877   \  you should stress the bass strings (E-d)
D/AD/A       557775   |  and preferably omit the discant ones
E/G#      476454   |  which allows you to cope with the fingering
G(III)    355433   /  slightly easier, too

All words following are originally from Andreas - I only changed
the chords and TABS (except SOLO):

"This is a favorite of mine. Maybe the solo isn't perfect, please mail
me if you find anything you think is wrong.

Repeat through verses 1, 2 and 4:

Notations:
----5----  play fret five
----5~---  play fret five with vibrato
---7\5---  play fret seven, slide down to fret five
---8(9)--  play fret eight, bend the string (at fret eight) to reach
             the pitch of fret nine
---(9)8--  play fret eight already bent to the pitch of fret nine,
             unbending until it reaches the normal pitch of fret eight
----h7---  hammer-on to fret seven
----p5---  pull-off to fret five
---/12---  slide up to fret 12 (the starting fret of the slide is
             undefined, judge by ear)

The | doesn't really mean anything, I just put them where they made
sense to me.

By the way, this is my first posting here, should I do anything special
to see too that this ends up in Nevada, or does someone else take care
of that " (Andreas)
