Words and music by Freddie Mercury
Transcription from Sept 92 of Guitar School
3 guitars here, 2 acoustics doubling each other (denoted by gtr 1) +
1 clean electric (try single coil bridge position - gtr 2). The bass
guitar part here is VERY important - it makes the song.
I'm including the electric fills - + the vsn by Gary Chapman has a
solo which looks slightly wrong.
^ = downstroke; u = upstroke
^ = Bend (as well)
.(above note) = Stacatto (v.short)
s = sustain (ie hold)
~ = vibrato
Bohemian Rhapsody
Words and music by Freddie Mercury
b means bend (first show is the fret from star and second the tone you have to
reach)
s means slide (play the first position and without stopping pressure on the
string slide the finger to the second note)
h means hammer on
p means pull of
() When a number is in brackets it means that you do the bend and then you keep
the string bended and pick again.
