Standard tuning

Comments: This is one of the best bass sounds KISS has ever put to tape.
Gene's main bass has a biting punsch in the mid-range and with a touch
of overdrive (the real tube overdrive, no distorsion here) the sound has
an unmistakeable growl to it. On top of that the line is sometimes doubled
by a synth bass (in the verse and indicated places in the tab). I kind of
like how the low E anchors the verse while the guitar plays various chords
over it. Notes in parenthesis are played every once in a while.


Key:
/    = slide up
    = slide down
b    = bend (whole step)
b^   = bend (1/2 step)
b^^  = bend (1 1/2 steps)
pb   = pre-bend
r    = release-bend
t    = tap with righthand finger
h    = hammer-on
p    = pull-off
~    = Vibrato
*    = Natural Harmonic
#(#) = Trill
**   = Artificial Harmonic
x    = Dead notes (no pitch)
P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes)
()  = Dive war
(/)  = Release war
Tp   = Tap wplectrum

SOMEWHERE BETWEEN HEAVEN AND HELL
Gene Simmons, Vini Poncia

[Intro: Guitar and drums only]
[Rhy. Fig 1]

[Rhy. Fig 2] (2x)
I'd have to be a mindreader, baby, just to know what's goin' on 
You don't need no crystal ball, sugar, can't you see my love is strong 

[Rhy. Fig 3]
Don't you know my temperature is startin' to rise up 
And it's draggin' me under your spell 

[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ End 1]
Somewhere between heaven and hell 
Sometimes I think you want to, but I can never tell 
Somewhere between pleasure and pain 
I'm about to go insane, I'm so hungry, I'm so hungry 

[Rhy. Fig 1]

[Rhy. Fig 2] (2x)
You don't have to see no furtune teller, to see I just can't take no more 
You been such a heartbreaker, baby, you keep a lock on heaven's door 

[Rhy. Fig 3]
Ain't you tired of goin' through the motions 
And standin' in the shadow of love 

[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ End 2]
Somewhere between heaven and hell 
Sometimes I think you want to, but I can never tell 
Somewhere between the truth and a lie 
Sometimes I wonder why, I can't hurt you, I can't hurt you 

[Rhy. Fig 5] (4x)

[Rhy. Fig 6 w/ End 1]
Don't need your lovin', don't want nothin' 
Don't need your sympathy, don't need a friend 
[Rhy. Fig 6 w/ End 2]
I just need somethin' I can believe in, I can believe in 

[Rhy. Fig 3]
Ain't you tired of goin' through the motions 
And hidin' in the shadow of love 

[Rhy. Fig 6 w/ End 3]
I'm somewhere between heaven and hell 
Sometimes I think you want me, but I can never tell 
Somewhere between pleasure and pain 
I'm about to go insane, I'm so hungry 

[Rhy. Fig 6 w/ End 4]
Somewhere between love and hate 
Don't know just what I'm feelin', babe I think it's gettin' late 
Somewhere between the truth and a lie 
Sometimes I wonder why, I can't hurt you

[Rhy. Fig 6 w/ End 4]
Somewhere between, Oooaaaooh
Somewhere between, I can't hurt you
Somewhere between the truth and a lie 
Sometimes I wonder why, I can't hurt you
