It's not that much different though so it shouldn't be that hard to figure out the PV version from the version posted here. I do not have all of the parts to this song, only a decent transcription of the intro and the part that follows it. Write me if you have any comments, questions, additions or corrections at meunier.1@osu.edu Have fun with it! "Hangman Jury"(Tyler/Perry/Vallance) Performed by Aerosmith at the Aerosmith Unplugged(1990) Originally from "Permanent Vacation"(1987) Transcribed off of "Aerosmith:Woodstock '94"(Octopus) Transcribed by Bryson Meunier intro(acoustic)- E---------------------------------------------------| B-------------------0-------------------------------| G-------------------0--------------------------5----| D---0------------0--0------0---------------3b-----3r| A------3p0----------------------------3p0-----------| E-----------3p0---------------0--3p0----------------| E---------------------------------------------------| B---------------------------------------------------| G---------------------------------------------------| D---0-----3b-r--0-------0-----------------0---------| A------0-----------3br----------5p3p0--0------------| E--------------------------------------------3br--0-| E---------------------------------------------------| B--------------------------------------0------------| G--------------------------------------0------------| D--------------3b-----0-------------0--0------------| A---------3p0------------3p0------------------------| E----3p0----------------------3p0-------------------| E---------------------------------------------------| B---------------------------------------------------| G---------------------------------------------------| D---0-------------------5---------0-----3b-r--3b-r-0| A--------------3p0--3b-----3r--------0--------------| E------0--3p0---------------------------------------| "heh"(Steven) E---------------------------------------------------| B---------------------------------------------------| G---------------------------------------------------| D-----0--------------------3b-----------------------| A--3------------------3p0---------------------------| E-------------0--3p0--------------------------------| At this point, Steven starts in with the harmonica and Joe returns to the beginning and plays a variation of what is tabbed here. The lyrics are basically the same as in the "Permanent Vacation" sleeve with the exception of Steven's notable substitution of "talkin' bout the first time we got laid" for "talkin' bout the money that I ain't made" and "stand on the rock Joe Perry done stood" for "stand on the rock that Moses stood." When Steven starts with "If I could I surely would..." for the first time, the guitar plays what sounds like a variation of this riff: E---------------------------------------------------| B---------------------------------------------------| G---------------------------------------------------| D----------------------0-----------------3b-0----0--| A--x-x-7p5---x-x-5p3------3--x-x-3p2--3--------3----| E---------------------------------------------------| You'll have to figure out the timing for this and the first part by listening to the music. I taped the Unplugged special back in 1990 but I didn't have it with me when I transcribed this. I may add/change something after I watch the tape. In the meantime, you're welcome to do the same. Write me with any questions. symbols used in transcription: p = pull-off b = bend r = release x = make percussive sound with fretting hand
