This is a complete tab for Van Halen's "Hear About it Later." Greg J. Musi
already did a great tab for the intro, so I just left his part as is, and
then
took over where he left off.

VERSE:
Lead guitar takes a break, while rhythm guitar plays:
(note: I'm not sure if the tap harmonics are really what he's doing, only
that
he does something of that nature to raise the octave of those
notes. Personally,
I just play the notes normally)
