Guitar players - Dead Flowers help
May 30^th, 2009 at 9:00pm

Hey guys
trying to get my head around the Stones Dead Flowers solo.

The song is in D.
Chords are D A G

one lick is here :
http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/r/rolling_stones/dead_flowers_tab.htm

it sounds great, and seems to be in D and G

another lick i have found is here :
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjLP_xI20Fg&feature=related

it also sounds great, but is in Bm Pent.

so I guess what is doing my head in is ... why is the lick using the Bm Pent ?

does anyone know of a decent TAB of this solo, or should I just keep noodling about.

love playing it, and would love to nail it.

Playing Stones songs is even better than listening to em me thinks. What the fuck?

You can find great tabs on ultimate-guitar.com. If you buy or illegally download guitar pro you can slow down tabs, play along, analyze, etc...

Bm pent? wtf is that? Blank Frigging Stare
