Eb Tuning

Key:
/ = slide up
\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)
b^ = bend (1/2 step)
pb = pre-bend
r = release-bend
h^ = hammer-on
p^ = pull-off

I didn't transcribe the intro since there is a
good transcription of that out there already and I
have included it here.This is very basic rock n
roll. It should be easy for most people. The solo is in
A minor and is based on thestandard Blues box position.
Enjoy..

And you're there to stay
