From: Eric Liang 
Subject: Boston  Peace of Mind


I finally got around to transcribing all this stuff.
So here's "Peace of Mind". Notation:  A ^ indicates hammer-on
or pull-off (I think using h and p is stupid). A b indicates 
a bent note. i.e. 5b6 means bend the fifth fret up to the pitch
that the 6th fret makes, i.e., a half step. A / means slide, though
I'm not sure if there are any in this song.
Well, anyway here it is:


-------------------------------
-5-x--------------9--9---------
-6-x-6--6-x-x-x-x-9--9-8--8-8--
-6-x-7--7-x-x-x-x-9--9-9--9-9--
-4-x-7--7-x-x-x-x-7--7-9--7-9--
-----5--5-x-x-x-x------7--7-7--

--7-7--7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7--7-7-7-7-7--7-7-|

Chords in chorus are the same as the intro acoustic riff.
The bridge goes:


---------------------------|---|
---------------------------|---|
-----------------2---6---9-|---|
--9-9-9-9-9------2---6---9-|-2-|
--9-9-9-9-9------0-0-4-0-7-|-2-|

---4-5-6-7--------6-----------------------16-------------------|
---------------------------------------18----------------------|
---------------------------------------------------------------|

Then two guitars come in and do this (arranged for 1 guitar)


-----------------------------------------------------------------|
------------7-9--10-7--9-7^9^7--------12b14--12--10^12^10--9--7--|
--8--9-9--9-8-9--11-8--9-8^9^8--8--9--13b14--13--11^13^11--9--8--|
--------------------------------9-11-----------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------------|
-----------------------------------------------------------------|

The above riff repeats twice. The first ending for the repeat is:


--------|
--------|
--------|
--9-9-9-|
--------|
--------|

The second ending is:


------------------|--------------19b21--|
--9--7^9^7--------|------16--17--21b22--|
--9--8^9^8--9-----|--18--16--18---------|
-----------11--11-|--19-----------------|
---------------12-|---------------------|
------------------|---------------------|


That's pretty much all the parts to the song.
Happy playing
