"In My Dreams with You"
by Steve Vai
From the Album: Sex and Religion
Tabbed by Adam Rice
Howdy y'all! This is one of my favorite Steve Vai songs, so I decided
to sit down and figure out how to play as much as possible. Some of the
orchestration of the synths and guitars gets quite complex, but I did my best
to figure out how to play the tune! I didn't use any special tabbing software
to create this, I just made a few bars and then copied and pasted, so hopefully
it will still work for everyone.
This song is fairly simple to play with the exception of most of the
pick scrapes; primarily, those found in the intro. Keep in mind this is my
interpretation, and that there are tons of ways to get equivalent pitches
all over the neck. Feel free to send your comments to me at:

a few notes on my notation:
X = scratch with fret hand palm or pick
\ = slide towards bridge
/ = slide towards nut
P.H. = Pinch Harmonic
P.M. = Palm Muting
~~~~ = vibrato
V = sweep pick (high to low strings)
22b(24)b(22) = bend to 24th fret, release to original pitch
p = pull off
h = hammer on

there is some weird harmonist effect on this and it pans left and right
until about :20

this is tricky...mute the strings with your fret hand, and then
use the side of your pick and scratch diagonally across the strings
as notated (it takes a bit of practice and LOTS of precision, be
patient):
X1-right behind neck humbucker, X2-over first coil of neck humbucker
X3-start behind neck humbucker and go towards bridge humbucker
(this is a cool effect, and if you fiddle with it, you'll find
all sorts of weird harmonic noises between the end of your neck and
your bridge pickup...enjoy)

\ whammy down to about E X4-start around the 17th fret and
slide using the side of the pick
(with the pick at about a 30 degree
angle from the strings). Apply
enough pressure so you can hear
the notes you scratch across on
the fingerboard.
