Distorted Guitar 1: (use a trace effect or a pitchbender set down an octave and pull up)

come in after 3 bars of lead guitar and play for 4 bars

E:-----------------------

B:-----------------------

G:---------3^3^3^3^3^3^3^

Break for 4 bars during piano solo then:

Slighty distorted guitar and Synth guitar both play Fig 1 for 8 bars

After 4 bars of Fig 1, Distorted guitar/synth guitar comes in with this for 4 bars:

E:---------------------

B:---------------------

G:---------------------

D:-------12------------

A:---------------------

D:---0-------3--5--8/7-

Cut for 4 bars to synth playing Fig1 and vocals

Then, (this is the really fucked part) 4 bars

I'm guessing there's some synth and distorted guitar playing something using these notes:

E:---------------------------

B:--------------15>----------

G:---------------------------

D:-----15-15-15------5-5-5-5-
A:-------------------5-5-5-5-
D:---0---------------5-5-5-5-

P-down------P-UP \/\/\/\

use a pitch bender/trace:

Then layering up on synth and distorted guitar:

E:---------------------------

B:---------------------------

G:---------------------------

D:------12---12--------------

A:---------------------------

D:---0-----0----7/8/5--5/7/3-

You can build the D string notes into powerchords towards the end

and emphasise the open Ds with a pitchbender down an octave

End Piano part arranged for guitar:

E:-------------------

B:-------------------

G:--------2--3--7--9-

D:---3>--------------

A:-------------------

D:-------------------
