   Joe Satriani - What Breaks a Heart
       (Strange Beautiful Music)
======================================

         Tabbed by Guitarnovice

I've managed to figure out the main parts for this
song from Satch's newest album, so I thought I'd post
what I've got. I could use some help with the solo
though - it's just too fast for me...
Please feel free to mail me any comments, corrections
death threats and such...

Ok, here the whammy bar comes into play, and since
I don't have a floating trem, I can't tab out this
section. The lead guitar hits harmonics and rips
them to the moon and back with the bar. The rhythm
guitar stays on what sounds like an A minor chord
which is strummed ska-style (upstrokes on the three
high strings)...

Then the lead goes into this...
