This is only the first part of the song, before the solo....
and I may have some wrong notes, since I'm using memory. (I corrected the notes.) I'm posting this one because it's easier to write in this format. I'll just post a video of
Black and White. It's actually pretty easy. Most of the song is just melody lines.
My favorite part of this song is the turn-around he uses at 1:09 - 1:19. Once you've learned this song up to 2:24, you know the whole song.
