From Emil's Tablature
Will it go Around in Circles
as performed by Trey at one of his solo shows
Tabbed by: Gabe Jessee < iloveff1999@yahoo.com >
Note: The intro is really hard to nail but what I have below is my best guess
If anyone has any other ideas about the intro let me and everyone else know.
Legend
------
h = hammer-on
p = pull-off
b = bend
r = bend release
/ = slide up/down
<5> = natural harmonic
[5] = artifical harmonic
~ = vibrato
tr = trill

Then play the verse and chorus again and then the Jam in in A.
I use an A minor Pent. and add an F# note for a littel more melody.

Voicings:
Ab x-4-5-6-6-4
Bdim7 x-6-7-6-x-7
Bbm7 x-6-6-6-8-6
F x-1-2-3-3-1
Gb x-2-3-4-4-2
Abm7 x-4-4-4-6-4
Db x-6-6-6-4-x
When I play it, I like to just use the two lowest notes to play the Ab,
F and Gb giving it a little more balls. Hope this helps.
The lick:

perhaps one guitar
The bass pauses for the first five notes then ascends like this:
