09/09/03

This is my first submittal and I hope this is useful to guitarists that
appreciate the technical skill of Yngwie Malmsteen. I believe this piece
is very useful in teaching phrases and various techniques. There are
subtle nuances that I haven't expressed in this tab, but the notes are as
close as I could get them. Please feel free to give me feedback.

Enjoy...
b=bend
tr=trill
h=hammer on
p=pull off
s=slide
