This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

I think most of this is right, some bits may be a little off, because I couldn't hear the guitar very clearly all throughout the song, it sounds okay to me. If you have any comments or suggestions, please mail them to me.

Listen to the song for timing.

After VERSE 1, there is a solo over Rhy.Fig.1.

After VERSE 2, there is the long interlude with soundeffects and the old man's speech.

Then:

FADE IN WITH KNOB:

---------||
---------||
---------||
-2-------||
-2-------||
-0-------||

Then play Rhy.Fig.1 two more times. And finally play this:

---------|---|---|---|-------||
---------|---|---|---|-------||
---------|---|---|---|-4-----||
-555-555-|-|-|-|-4-----||
-555-555-|---|---|---|-2-----||
-333-333-|---|---|---|-------||

That's it.

Symbol explanation:

= Repeat the previous measure entirely

..... = Uncertain number of times note/chord played

' = Pause
