California Babylon

by:DarkAsAGothK*

A great song by a great band, I 
looked everywhere on the internet
for this tab, and couldn't find it 
anywhere, so I did it myself.
This is my first tab, so be aware it
 may be a bit off, especially
the solo. I'm no experienced player,
 I'm only 15.

/ - Slide Up
\ - Slide Down
h - Hammer-on
p - Pull-off
bp- Bend Really fast before you 
pull-off
bh- Bend really fast before you 
hammer-on
~ - Let Ring
x - Dead Note
#:- Stop note from ringing right 
after you strike it.

The end part of the solo 
[6bp4bh6bp4bh6bp4] is a lot easier
than it looks, just bend the string 
a bit and do the
hammer-ons and pull-offs. I don't 
think the bending is
nessicary anywhere, i just think 
it's a nice touch.

After the "She thinks shes a star,do
 you know who you are?"
part, the chorus/verse changes to 
this:
