Snow Blind
Ace Frehley
Text File
Tuned down 1/2-step
Comments: Again it's Ace on the bass. For some reason he chooses not to
play the first A, compare Rhy. Fig 1a with 1b and 1c, during the instru-
ental parts and the first round of each chorus. During the guitar solo,
it's all octaves; something he uses freqently.
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

[Rhy. Fig 2]
It's so hard to feel right baby
When I'm travelin' around and you're far behind
Guy, I wish I could see my lady
Girl, I hope you don't mind, 'cos
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
I'm snowblind, I can't see a thing
[Rhy. Fig 1b] (3x)
I'm snowblind, I don't wanna sing
I'm snowblind, need a familiar face
I'm snowblind, think I'm lost in space
[Rhy. Fig 2]
Lookin' out my window, sometimes I wonder
Am I ever gonna get to where I'm gonna go home
Maybe tomorrow, maybe next summer
Girl, I just don't know, 'cos

Movin' around, I get in trouble
when I'm feelin' so low and out of my mind
Babe, I don't wanna burst your bubble
Girl, you know the reason why, 'cos
[Rhy. Fig 1a]
I'm snowblind, I can't see a thing
