This isn’t all of it (I don’t know all of it…) but here’s the opening riff
to tide you over for a minute or two.

semi-harmonic sounds cool here if you can pinch it out.
WHAT I WOULD LIKE is for some kind person to give me is the basis of the
riff that follows during the verses.
Stuffed if I can figure it out though it sounds like some pretty straight
forward diddling.

Hi everyone! I’m new to the net so please forgive any inadequacies
in my net etiquette. This posting is in response to a request for TAB of
Aerosmith’s “Walk This Way”. There are some very subtle differences between
this version and the one I saw earlier. I believe this version is correct
with the possible exception of the verse part (my axe isn’t handy). This is
the way we play it every Saturday nite at Maria’s and it always gets one of
the evenings biggest rounds of applause.

Double stops are very important during the verses and the
solo. Use double stops during the solo. It makes
the song sound more complete.

intro-
Repeat each chord about eight times(I think. Listen to the cd for
verification). Palm mute repeated chords. Turn up the gain and the bass on
your amp for a fatter guitar sound.

Lyrics:
If you believe in me like I believe in you
you wouldn’t be tellin’ me things that weren’t exactly true
Now everything changes ain’t nothin the same
I’m gettin’ the strangest feelin’ I can’t remember my name
Cause the life I’ve been livin and the love I’ve been givin’ will be sure to
send you spinnin’ with your feet never touchin’ the ground, goin’ round
and round.
When it was one for all and it was all for one
and everything that we did never bothered no one
Now everything changes ain’t nothin the same
I’m gettin’ the strangest feelin’ I can’t remember my name
Cause the life…etc.
Can you remember the days when you was sweet sixteen
and always followed the ways of someone else’s dream
Now everything changes…etc.
I’m goin’ round and round and round and round…

You should be able to figure out the remaining rhythm guitar parts from
the chords indicated here. Anyone who wants to take the time to work out the
lead guitar work is more than welcome to add it to this file/create their
own file. I post songs because I want to see accurate transcriptions that
aren’t otherwise available. If you can make this transcription more accurate
or if you just have questions or comments, e-mail me at meunier.1@osu.edu
