_ [E] _ _ _ [Gb] _ _ [G] _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ Wish you [N] were here by Pink Floyd.
This is the _ _ guitar solo from [G] the intro. _ _ _ _
_ G major pentatonic, _ _ uses pattern one in the open position,
[Bm] _ _
[G] _ _ _ little bit of pattern [Em] two as [Bm] well, _ _ _
mainly the top part of that.
_ [A] _ _ _ _
This is played on an acoustic [N] guitar, _
although I suspect that this player either had some light strings on his [G] guitar or some really strong fingers because it's really difficult to bend
strings on an acoustic, [N] especially when you're this close to the nut, the tension of the strings is so great. _ _
Anyway, you start here in pattern one, _
with a slide,
_ _ pick the second fret and slide to the fourth fret.
_ [B] _ _
_ _ _ _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ [D] _ _ _ [N] _ _
_ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gm] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Abm] _ [A] _ _ _
[D] This is a double pull [Bb]-off.
You [B] pick the fourth fret, _ you pull off to your index finger, which should be waiting in the second [A] fret,
_ _ [G] _
so _ [A] you only pick this first note, you don't pick the [B] rest.
_ [D] _ _ [Gm] _
_ You [G] slide them with a pull-off there, [B] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _
and you end with an [D] open position. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] Then you've got a hammer-on on string [A] five.
_ [B] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[C] Next phrase,
[E] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ [N] _ _ _ you're in pentatonic pattern two, and you're like playing two strings at a time, so [A] visualize the pattern.
[Gm] _
_ _ [Em] _ _ _ [D] _ _
Grab two strings [Em] at a time.
You're going to start here at the third [N] fret.
I recommend you barre, _ pick these together, slide them up,
[G] _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ you pick and slide back, [N] do the same thing on strings _ two and three.
_ Here's the note in the pattern on string two, here's the note in the pattern on string three.
_ _ You're going to slide this up two frets and move it back.
[D] _ _
[Em] _ _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [C] _ _ Three, both [G] of them.
_ _ _ _ [A] _
Again, the fifth [D] fret,
[Em] _ _ hold it up,
_ [N] come back to here, and [D] pull it up.
_ [G] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Slide it into the fifth fret of string four, to finish that phrase. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [N] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [Eb] Slide from pattern one to two again.
_ [Db] _ [Bm] _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Am] _ You have a pre-bend.
[N] You should bend this note before you pick it.
You'll pick it while it's bent, you'll hear it release,
_ [E] _
and [D] then you _ pull off your index finger, waiting in the [C] third _ fret.
[Gbm] _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _
_ [Bbm] _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [E] _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ And the second fret on string three,
[N] then you have
_ _ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [A] the _ _ _
[G] tough bend.
Fourth fret, string three, _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [E] _
three-five on the second string, [A] back to the bend.
_ _ [B] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [Abm] _ _ [D] _ _ [E] _ [D] _ _
_ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Ab] _ _ [A] _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bm] _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ That slide in [A] is the same as you did last time.
_ [Bm] _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ [N] Here you have the regular bend.
Just pick it and bend it,
_ _ _ [Am]
followed by a pick and [Em] pull off,
[D] _ _
followed [E] by a pick.
_ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [D] Finally, [E] _ _ _ [Gb] _ [E] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[Gbm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Bm] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _
[G] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [D] _
_ _ _ you do that bend at the fourth [N] fret again.
You're going to pick it, bend it up, and you will hear it release as well.
_ _ _ [B] _ _ [A] _ _ _ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [A] _
