The Shortest Straw

The timing of this song is primarily in 4/4 with an 
occasional 2/4 bar at the end of certain sections.  The 
very first bar (in 1/16 time) is there simply 
to accomodate the first pre-beat note of the song.

The 16th note at the beginning is easily mistaken for 
an 8th note; listening to the track at extremely slow 
speeds reveals it to be a shorter note than the 8th note 
which follows it and makes more sense within the 
structure of the bars.

Song Notes:

Note #1: during this run slide your first finger down one 
fret at a time whilst performing the pull-offs with your 
fourth finger.

Note #2: The bends in this bar are not equal across 
the strings.  The G-string is bent up a 3/4 step while 
the B-string is only bent a 1/4 step.  This doesn't need 
to concern you when playing your guitar as it will 
probably happen naturally, but Guitar Pro doesn't 
handle this kind of variable bending very well, at least 
not in MIDI, so the resulting Guitar Pro playback 
sounds a little off.

Sources used include individual instrument master 
tracks (ripped from a video game).  Given this album's 
reputation for a lack of low-end the bass master track 
proved invaluable!
