Detroit Rock City

as performed by KISS
written by P. Stanley an B. Ezrin
from the album SMASHES, THRASHES, & HITS
transcribed by B. Priddle


Here is a classic by one of the greatest rock bands ever.
Gene Simmons plays a great riff in this song. It's a must for any
bass player!!

I have presented all of the riffs in this song up front. The
structure is given later on with the words, so if you want to know which
riff is which, you should look at the word section first! Also, to
play along with the recording, you must downtune your bass to Eb, Ab, Db,
and Gb.



Intro Riff:

---------------------------------------6-6-6-6-6-6-6------------
----------------------------------------------------------------
-4-2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4-2-4--------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------0-5---0-7--


Repeat this doing the 4-2 thing on the second string 12 times instead
of 10 times as shown above.
