VAN HALEN - ON FIRE (SOLO)
ALBUM - VAN HALEN I
[Tabbed by Joe Thibeault]
[contact me at: jrthib@myeastern.com]
The easiest way to memorize this solo is to memorize it in 2 parts just like i have divided
it here. The rest is
pretty simple. There is some jumping around but its just triplets. I suggest you use
legato instead of picking
each individual note (except for on the palm muting part). Listen to the recording for
timing. E-mail me for
any questions.
GOOD LUCK!
