This classic hit, known for its powerful melody and striking guitar work, has been meticulously transcribed for both rhythm and lead guitar parts. In this video, I break down each section of the song, ensuring you can play along and master it at your own pace.

The transcription process involved careful listening and attention to detail to capture the essence of the original recording. Both the rhythm and lead guitar parts have been accurately transcribed to reflect the song’s dynamic range and intricate patterns.
