Somewhere Over The Rainbow ? Joe Satriani 
Tabbed By Sean Richey 
 
The best and most innovative guitar player?Joe Satriani     
 
I downloaded this of Morpheus, but I don?t think it?s on any of his CD?s.
 In between phrases there are some cool fills here and there but it?s too hard to figure out.
 And if you throw in some harmonics here and there it will sound even better 
 
(b) = bend 
/   = slide 
a.h.= artificial harmonics
