ACES HIGH- Difficulty 8/10 -------------------------------------------- This song is pretty fun to play, but can be very difficult at times. If I give you the lines I trust you'll be able to work out the arrangement (i.e. when different parts return etc) :) ~ = slide or hammer on/off # = mute/damp (achieved by pressing the fret half-down or putting another finger slightly on the next fret) |(notes)| = tuplet ! = accented (play harder on that note) {}= harmonics * = staccato (play the note shorter) " = tenuto (play the note to its full length) Intro: G: -------------------------------- D: -4---4-4-4-----0----2-2-2------- x4 A: -------------------------------- E: -------------------------------- First Riff (fast n fun!): G: -2---2-2-2-2-2-2----2-2-2----------------0--0-0-0-0-0-0------------ D: --------------------------3--3-3-3-3-3-3--------------------------- x4 A: ------------------------------------------------------------------- E: ------------------------------------------------------------------- "There goes the siren...."

It is also how E: ------------------------------------------------------ 'Arry does it. The solos are just basically like the chorus parts but higher. End (outro)!

E: ---------------------------------------------------------------------3----- I hope that's enough to get you through the song. The parts I left I assumed were easy enough for you to work them out.
