Larger Than Life

Kiss

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 r^ = release-bend half-step h^ = hammer-on p^ = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Muted String (Palm Muting) X = Muted String (Fretboard Muting) Another forgotten song off of Alive II. Bob Kulick plays on this one, as he does on ALL new tracks on Alive II except Rocket Ride. Fairly standard Paul rhythm work, and Bob overplays a bit here, but it works just fine. Enjoy!
