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

Subject: Ozzy Osbourne transcript
Here's my transcription of "I Don't Want to Change the World" by Ozzy Osbourne.
Written by: Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Wylde, Randy Castillo, Lemmy Kelmister
As appears on Ozzy Osbourne's "No More Tears"
D# tuning
Legend: / = Slide up
\ = Slide down
^ = hammer on / pull off
( ) = bend
ph = pinch harmonic
pm = palm muting
MAIN RIFF:
D# |-----------------------------------|---------------------------| A# |-----------------------------------|---------------------------| F# |---2--------2--------------5--5/7--|---2--------2-----2--------| C# |---2--------2--------------5--5/7--|---2--------2-----2--------| G# |---0--x--x--0--x--x--x--x--3--3/5--|---0--x--x--0--x--0--------| D# |-----------------------------------|---------------------------| |----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------| |---2--------2--------------5-/-7--|---2--------2--------5(7)ph-------5(7)ph---| |---2--------2--------------5-/-7--|---2--------2------------------------------| |---0--x--x--0--x--x--x--x--3-/-5--|---0--x--x--0--x--x------------------------| |----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
The whole song primarely goes along those lines... When he comes to the refrain, it
switches to:
pm.......
|---------------|-------|----------------|-----------------------------------------| |---------------|-------|----------------|------------------12(14)--12-------------| |--2------------|---0---|---0---------0--|--2---------2-----------------11--9--11--| |--2--------2---|---0---|---0---------0--|--2---------2----------------------------| |--0--------2---|-------|----------------|--0---------0----------------------------| |---------------|---3---|---3---------3--|-----------------------------------------|
I don't want to change...
|-------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------| |---------------------3---|---3---------3----3--------------------------------------| |--2------------------0---|---0---------0----0---12(14)ph-----12(14)ph-----12(14)ph-| |--2-----------2------0---|---0---------0----0--------------------------------------| |--0-----------2----------|--------------------------------0------------0-----------| |---------------------3---|---3---------3----3--------------------------------------|
Then, right before the solo:
|------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------------------| |------------------------------------------------------4-----2-----| |--2---4---4---4-4-4-4---2---4---4-4---2---4---4-4-2---4-----2-----| |--2---4---4---4-4-4-4---2---4---4-4---2---4---4-4-2---2-----0-----| |--0---2---2---2-2-2-2---0---2---2-2---0---2---2-2-0---------------|
I haven't got around to the solo, yet. Besides, it's always better to stay along the
lines of the original version, but express yourself by incorporating some original
material in the solo (taping, etc).
