RAISE YOUR GLASSES (from the KISS CD "PSYCHO CIRCUS")
--------------------
Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, [email protected]
Tuned down 1/2-step
Comments: Paul¥s solo is fairly easy, lots of open E-string here. The only
hard part is the pull-off lick really. Riffs that have a and b parts are
played at the same time (usually a is by Paul and b is by Ace).
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

RAISE YOUR GLASSES
Stanley/Knight
[Rhy. Fig 1a w/ Rhy. Fig 1b] (3x)
[Rhy. Fig 2a]
I took a ride with a one way ticket
I aimed my arrow at the mark and hit it
We all need to be somebody
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b]
Been broken down, but not defeated
I kept on punching back till I succeeded
We all need to be somebody, now
[Rhy. Fig 3]
[Rhy. Fig 4]
We stop at nothing, even climb barbed wire
We struck a match and set the world on fire
And if we tried, we couldn't get much higher, now
[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b]
(Ohh) Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround 'cause we're the champions
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
[Rhy. Fig 2a]
We pushed it all, beyond the limit
We took our chances and we jumped right in it
We all need to be somebody
[Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b]
Now I believe, in strength in numbers
Went into battle with a force of thunder
We all need to be somebody
[Rhy. Fig 4]
I wanna shout it out with all my power
I wanna scream it from the highest tower
I want to celebrate our finest hour, now
[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b]
(Ohh) Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround 'cause we're the champions
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
[Rhy. Fig 6a w/ Rhy. Fig 6b]
Oh, you gotta give it your all
You gotta know what you're after
And go, we'll make it over the wall together
[Solo over Rhy. Fig 1a w/ Rhy. Fig 1b] (2x)
[Rhy. Fig 7] (2x)
I took a ride with a one way ticket
I shot my arrow at the mark and hit it
(Everyone around the nation)
When all the others only talked, i did it
(Raise your glasses, raise your glasses)
Kept pushing everything beyond the limit
(Lift your voice in celebration)
[Rhy. Fig 8]
You play the game, you gotta play to win it
So raise your glasses, raise your glasses
[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b] (2x)
Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Standing pround 'cause we're the champions
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
[Rhy. Fig 5a w/ Rhy. Fig 5b] (repeat and fade)
(Well, come on)
Everyone around the nation
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
Raise your voice in celebration
Raise your glasses, raise your glasses
