This TAB is meant only as an add-on to the "DreamOn.crd" that can
already be found at Nevada (thank you, whoever you are). Fills 1, 4,
and 5 are based on F pentatonic minor, and Fill 3 is based on C
pentatonic minor. Fill 2 is just based on the chords that back it,
and the solo is based on the intro.
I suppose a word is in order about my notation for slides. If the note
that you slide *to* has a slash directly in front of it, the note is not
picked. If there is a space between the slash(es) and the note, then
the note *is* picked. I realize this may be confusing, but I wanted to
be precise.
Corrections, questions, comments, etc. always welcome!
