Crazy Train
To start of learning Crazy train I will focus on learning the main riff. The song is in the key of f sharp minor and the riff uses notes from the sharp minor scale.
The tab for the riff is

|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------| repeat 2 times
|------------------------------------|
|------4---5----4--2--------2--------|
|-2--2---2---2-------5-4-5----5-4--0-|

|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------|
|------4---5----4--5-5-5-7-7-7-------|
|-2--2---2---2-----------------------|

The riff requires large hand and finger stretches to be able to play across all f the frets. To practise the riff I will break it down into different sections and start slowly building u speed with a metronome until I can play the song at full tempo. I will give myself a week to learn this as this will be enough time to learn the riff and play it smoothly.
