  Okay, the majority of Vai requests have been for this song.  Although I

  must disagree with those who think that this and "Touching Tongues" are the

  best songs on the album; what about "Sex & Religion" or "Survive"?  Those

  songs kick ass!

  I didn't tab "Touching Tongues" because the rhythm track requires a 7-

  string guitar, and the lead requires delay and a WHAMMY pedal.  I don't

  think the average guitarist has those things handy. :)

  Anyway, all you need for this song is an acoustic guitar, an eletric

  guitar, and a hell of a lot of patience!  Some of the chords are a pain in

  the ass (or should I say fingers?).

  Some notes on the way I do ascii tab:  "p" - pull-off

                                         "h" - hammer-on

                    "v"s in front of a chord - upstroke

                                        "nh" - natural harmonic

  It gets really orchestrated and complex after this.

  If all you really wanted was the intro, there it is.  If you want more,

  ask me nicely.
