This is the riff that opens up the song and appears near the end of the
song:
E ------------------------------------
B -----4-------4------4------1---3----
G -2-3-----2-3----2-3----2-3--------3-
D ------------------------------------
A ------------------------------------
E ------------------------------------
After this riff is played three times, the keyboard riff that appears is:
E -------3--------3----------------------3--------3--6--6-6-6--4--3--
B -4--6-----4--6-----4--1--1--1--4-4--6-----4--6---------------------
G -------------------------------------------------------------------
D -------------------------------------------------------------------
A -------------------------------------------------------------------
E -------------------------------------------------------------------
This is played two times, then the drums come in and then a weird effect
appears, I think it is harmonics played like:
E -----------------------------------------
B --7-7--7--7-7--7-7---5--5-5--5--5--5-5-5- <--play the 5 repeatedly for
G ----------------------------------------- six times then play, on
D ----------------------------------------- the high E string a fifth
A ----------------------------------------- fret harmonic repeatedly.
E -----------------------------------------
This appear throughout the song, also with a staccato C note played on
the fifth fret of the G string, during the song.
The main part of the song, is mainly the bass riff which repeats itself
over and over again for eight minutes of the song. If you don~t know
alread s indicates a slide, p indicates a pull-off and ~ indicates
tremolo. Here is the bassline:
G ------------------------------------------------------
D ------------------------------------------------------
A -3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-s-6-6-6--3-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-s-5-5-5-
E ------------------------------------------------------
G -----------------------------------------------------------
D -----------------------------------------------------------
A -----------------------------------------------------------
E -4-4--4-4--4-4--4-4-s-13-13-13--3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-s-6-6-6-
Another riff that appears in the song comes after the bassline initially
plays two times, this riff is:
E -8---------
B ---10------
G ------8---- This riff is also played when the drum track kicks out
D --------10- for un momento.
A -----------
E -----------
After that play a C5 chord. The next riff is that almost -solo- type riff
but it~s not. This is it:
E --------------------------------------------------
B ----------4--3---------------------1-------6------
G -------5-------3-3--------------1-------3---------
D ----5--------------3-----3p1--1-------3-----------
A -3------------------------------------------------
E -----------------------------------------------3--
Now, before Smith comes in with his vocals, that guitar line is (I am not
sure if I play it an octave higher but here it is):
E -6~-----------6-6--4-4--3----4----1-
B ------------------------------------
G ------------------------------------
D ------------------------------------
A ------------------------------------
E ------------------------------------
After that a keyboard plays E --6--4--3-, then Smith starts singing.
While he is singing, there is that freaky guitar line, played with delay,
that goes like:
E -8--11--10--8--8--11--10--8-----11--10--8-----10--11--13-
B -----------------------------9-------------8-------------
G ---------------------------------------------------------
D ---------------------------------------------------------
A ---------------------------------------------------------
E ---------------------------------------------------------
