BON JOVI - "wanted dead or alive" Tablature

Song: Wanted Dead or Alive
Artist: Bon Jovi
Album: Slippery When Wet
Transcriber: Jon Sellner

Adam Miller tabbed the main riff for this song
previously on this site. I had to correct it a
little and put it in its entirety.
This is my first tab. I hope it looks okay.
I know more Jovi songs from Slippery and Jersey
so if you need advice email me:

When ever that funky guitar riff is played play D’s on the
A string (5th fret) where appropriate.

Rest on the first verse.

For the second verse play:

G --------------------------------------------------------------------
D --------------------------------------------------------------------
A -----5--------5---5-------0---2-----3---------------------0---2---3-
E --------------------------------------------3---3-------------------

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D------5----5---------5---3--------------------------------------------
A-----------------------------5---5---------------0----2-------5------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------------------------------------------------5---5---------
A--5---5----------3----------------------5--4---3----------------------
E-----------------------3---3-----------------------------------------

G---------------------------------------------------------------
D---5---3-------------------------------------------------------
A------------5---5----------------------------------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------

Chorus
I’m not supposed to include lyrics so when he talks about
being a cowboy (hope that works) play:

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D------------------------------3---------------------------------------
A---3--------------------------------5--5------------3----------------
E---------3--3----------------------------------------------3--3------

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D--------------3----------------------------------5---5----------------
A---3---5----------5-5---------------------3---------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------3------------------------------------------------------
A---3----3----------5-5------------------------------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

Now play the D’s again and get ready for the guitar solo.

Solo is similar to verse but a few changes:

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------
A--5-------5---5---------------0---2--------3------------------------
E----------------------------------------------------3--3--------------

G--------------------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------------5--7--5--5-----------5---3------------------
A---5--4--------3-------------------------------------5---5---------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------
A---5--3---------5-------5--5-------5-5-----3---2----1---0-------------
E-----------------------------------------------------------------3--3-

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D-------------2--3--5--5------5-5-5-5----------5---3------------------
A----3--3------------------------------------------------5---5--------
E----------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyrics come back now:

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D---------------------------3----------------------------------5--5----
A---3------------------------------5--5--------0--2---3---------------
E-----------3--3-------------------------------------------------------

Take a really short rest then:

G----------------------------------------------------------------------
D----------------------------------------------------------------------
A---5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5------------5--------5--5----------
