The Offspring（后裔乐队）的《I'll Be Waiting》收录于他们的同名专辑《Offspring》中，这首歌以其奇特的旋律和略带忧伤的歌词，深受乐迷喜爱。歌曲讲述了一种期待和期盼的心情，或许是期待一个朋友，或许是期待一个机会，又或许是期待一个谜底。歌词中的“Once I had a friend that I could count on times of need are not enou…” 简单直接，却又充斥力量，引发听众的共鸣。

这首歌曲的吉他部分充斥力量，riff简单而抓耳。Verse部分的D, F(hi), C, G和弦进行奠定了歌曲的基调，而Chorus部分的F(hi), C, D, A, A#和弦变革则增加了歌曲的条理感。歌曲间奏的Bassline则为歌曲增添了一份律动。

乐谱弹奏技巧：

• Intro Lead: 注意滑音(Slide)、击弦(Hammer On)、勾弦(Pull Off)和颤音(Vibrato)的运用，这些技巧能让你的演奏更富表示力。
• Verse: 注意和弦的转换，坚持节奏的稳定。
• Chorus: Halfway through chorus 和 Then this at the end of the chorus 难度较高，多加练习掌握技巧。
• Bassline Bridge: 注意节奏的准确性，低音的律动是这部分的关键。
• Solo: 乐谱中给出了一个音阶，你可以考试考试在这个音阶上进行即兴演奏，找到属于你自己的solo。

希望这个乐谱能赞助你更好地演奏这首《I'll Be Waiting》，感受The Offspring的音乐魅力！
