The tepo of the MIDI is 100 bpm (beats per minute - quarter notes). measure 37 - in the sheet the bottom note of the 1st chord is G (not G#) === - length of note, note held, duration |~6~| - sextuplet - 6 notes in the time of 4 notes |~7~| - septuplet - seven notes in the time of 4 notes # - ornament (use trills, mordents etc) h - hammer-on p - pull-off ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ the latest version of this tab can be found at http://www.classtab.org if you come across any mistakes please let me know - weed@wussu.com
