KISS - "speedin" Tablature

Speedin' Back To My Baby (from the KISS-LP "Ace Frehley")
------------------------

transcribed by Mark Perillo (mark@kisstabs.com)

Standard 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


This is one of my favorites off of Ace's 1977 Solo album.
I play it in standard tuning, but you can do it in Eb,
just move all the positions up one fret to G when you
tune down.

I didn't transcribe the solo (except for the end lick)
since it's pretty standard ACE, and there is not alot of
ACE riff type soloing. enjoy.
