Gets Me Through
Ozzy Osbourne
Down To Earth
2001

Another awesome feat for Ozzy/Wylde.  Standard tuning is odd for a Wylde
song, as most of his tunes are Eb.  But i believe he preforms this in
standard....  Most of the parts are pretty simple & even repetitive, but
they all go together to make a great song.

Intro:

Purty piano intro here... For an added touch, the chords are:

Em, C, Em, C, C7

Which then breaks into this:

E-6\\\---

Hit the slide, then play this two times (2X).  All the hits are there but
you'll have to listen to the intro yourself for the exact rhythm.

      b - bend
      r - release bend
     pb - pre-bend
      / - slide up               Simple symbols......
      \ - slide down
      v - vibrato
      t - tapping
      X - scrape
      ~ - let ring



I’ve had a few requests lately for the piano intro tab,
and I realized that’s it’s incredibly handy to have if
you’re playing this as a one-man-band. So, here ya go...

           ,--The "2" is played quickly after the last "0"
