Note: You can make a pretty nice sound out of the scale
if you just pick the first note, then hammer on +
pull off the rest. The end is just a usual slide
in technique but for some reason Luca decided to
slide back up and play it again. Heh.

Note: There are a few places the pitched harmonic can be played
I just personally find the F# on the G string to be most
appropriate. The last bar is a combination between the
power chords and the melody. If you just want the melody
then ignore the A and G strings and just play the D.

Note: The D Power Chord in the fifth bar is actually an octave lower (which
would mean drop D tuning). It's alot more satisfying to settle with
playing in this octave rather than learning the main riff in Drop D.
Trust.

Note: I don't recommend playing the chord and the lick on the last bar.
I gave it a go but just settled with playing the lick then second
chord in the end.

Note: Again another tuning problem. The Eb Chord is actually an octave lower
but again I recommend playing it here to spare yourself the trouble.

It's a typical Luca string skipping thing. However, this is without a doubt
the hardest in any rhapsody song ever.

There is a quiet guitar playing an arpeggio pattern in the background
but as I'm arranging this for one guitar, I'm prioritizing the lead
and so I'm not going to tab the second guitar. Sorry.
