Guitar tabs
Lenny Kravitz- ³Rock and Roll is Dead² Transcribed by Bryan Pero(perob@willow.uml.edu) Well these are just all the basic Led Zeppelinish riffs in the song and how they fit with the lyrics. I have most of the solo figured out and I¹ll post it later, if you really want it. Intro/Rythym figure 1.(ryth.fig.1. is intro w/out muted strum and slide from 17th fret). This is two guitars playing together(L.Kravitz and Craig Ross) arranged for one guitar: -Palm Mute- E-------------------------------------------------------- B--X-X-X----------------------------------X/17-17-17-17-- G--X-X-X----------------------------------X/17-17-17-17-- D--X-X-X----------------3-----------------X/17-17-17-17-- A--X-X-X-------------3^5--5^3-------------X/17-17-17-17-- E---------17\--3-4-5----------5^3--3-4-5-----------------
