Anybody Listening? Tabs

(ver. 2)
Queensryche
Here is the lead for the song Anybody Listening? by Queensryche.
I don't have this part memorized (which is why I didn't include it before)
so I am taking this right from the book. I hope you can use this.

intro: (listen to the song for the exact timing.)

This next part comes in after the line: "I've just begun to see the light."
   the first time and after "...and there's not much I can do..." the second
   time.

 (volume swell)                    (tremolo bar dive)
                  (to coda second time after "...alone")

                                            here singing begins again:

That is all of the lead guitar parts for the song. I hope that this is useful
and understandable.
If you want other Queensryche songs, I also have the music for:
Another Rainy Night (Without You)
Best I Can
Empire
Jet City Woman
One And Only
Resistance
Silent Lucidity
Revolution Calling
I Don't Believe In Love

They are all from tab books or magazines and not my own interpretations.
