  10. AC/DC - It's a Long Way To the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)
  11. Tabbed by Jason Kester <jkester@sea.ms.ch2m.com>

  13. This is an easy song that nobody can seem to figure out how to play
  14. because it's so far out of tune.  I guess you cant really tune a
  15. bagpipe, so they had to tune to it.  Anyway, tune down a quarter step
  16. (yeah, half a fret...) and then tweak it until it sounds right.

  74. Then comes the solo.  The bagpipe part goes:

  78. +-7H8-----
  79. +---------

  83.  
  84. That's about it.  It's pretty easy.  The solo is in the 7th position.

  108. The spacing of the notes kind of reflects the timing of the song, but not
  109. very well.
