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

Second Ending

This is played along with the other 2 parts above,

only this sounds synth-like and hard to follow.

This is the best I could for it. Again listen to

CD for timing. Use Delay W/Tap Tempo and Chorus Pedal.

Use a Ring Mod. if you have it and Wah or Auto-Wah.

Guitar 3

(I've been to London...)

Strum each 8 times Pick scrap + Strum Gradual release

For the rest of it mess around with the whammy bar

and try to keep in key.

Thanks y'all
