Tuned down 1/2-step
Comments: A kick-ass song. Perhaps a little out of character for KISS
but perfectly in line with Gene's demon perona. Dig how Gene mostly
doubles the guitars but takes it two octaves below at times to add
some serious weight to this track.
Key:

\ = slide down
b = bend (whole step)
b^ = bend (1/2 step)

P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
(\) = Dive w\bar
