Blood on the Rooftops - Genesis (Guitar intro by Steve Hackett)

Tabbed by Paul Meekin (PMEEKIN@ESOC.BITNET) and Jeff Lo (JEFFREYLO@delphi.com).

The intro up until the vocals was done by Paul Meekin.  I have made a
few minor changes to Paul's intro.  The rest is my fault.  :)

During the verses, I have added a bass staff and some pedal notes below
that.  I don't play bass or bass pedals so I probably _really_ screwed
things up there.  I just liked the way the bass part sounded.

During the choruses, I just added my best approximation of some guitar
chords to substitue for the synth.  

Right after the choruses, there are a couple of measures with two or
three guitars, bass and keyboards weaving a pattern that I haven't
figured out yet.

Please send me any comments, corrections, etc.  so that I may continue
to improve upon this.

Hope you enjoy it!

   1.  Is staying up late to watch some debate on some nation's fate.

   2.  For when we got bored, we'd have a world war, happy but poor

Notes:
 
+  -This is meant to be a pause, musically a fermata. Use it to your own effect
 
H  -Hammer on/hammer off
 
A  -A sort of arpeggio but strummed downwards once with the thumb.
 
*  -The lower string is plucked very slightly earlier than the top one. Almost
     like a grace note.

() -An implied note.  Sometimes it is a string that is struck lightly by
    mistake, in other instances, it is the rest of the chord.
