 KILLER (from the KISS CD "CREATURES OF THE NIGHT")
 --------------------
 
 Transcribed by Emil Ortenmark, emil@kissasylum.com
 
 Standard tuning
 
 Comments: The bass plays a central role in this song. The Peter Gunn-type
 riff during the verse contrasts nicely with the static E's played by the
 guitar and the little minor pentatonic motif in the pre-chorus, with a
 serious b7 to create tension, just plain rocks.
