Trouble Walkin
Ace Frehley
Chord: Principal (acoustic and electric guitars)We Chords Seal: This chord has been reviewed to meet the official criteria of our Quality Team.
Transcribed by : Breno Jendell Guitar (*) riffs follow the lead vocal, mainly in the chorus. The song is very simple and the main riff (Rhythm Fig. 1A & B) changes the licks each time, never repating the same line. The solo is very creative, with pentatonic licks in Am, then in Em. After the solo, Ace uses a bridge which leaves a different touch to the song (Rhythm Fig. 4), very well done. The music ends with another solo, which reminds us of the other licks used in the song. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum
