Old by Machine Head
Transcription by Jeff Davis

Notation:

nh - natural harmonic
ah - artifical harmonic or pinch harmonic (same thing)
~  - virbrato
p  - pull off
/  - slide up           these are used for normal
\  - slide down           and ghost note slides

I have written the beat numbers under the notes on the down beats.
In general I tried to keep one dash '-' equal to a thirty-second note.

Thus,
|-2---2---2---2---   are eight notes and

|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-   are sixteenth notes.



Tuning:

1 - E
2 - B
3 - G
4 - C#  <---- *Notice*  I know it's wierd but trust me, this is it.
5 - A
6 - D

In addition, tune all strings a 1/4 of a step lower to match the album.

                          O   O   L     D   D

These notes are played as sixtuplets.  These means in one beat there are

six notes played.
