Wonderful World
by: Tesla (This band rocks!) off of Bust a Nut
Transcription by: Scott Ettinger (Sparc@delphi.com) 4/27/95 1:30 A.M.
I heard this song the other day and it blew me away, so I had to figure it
out.
Intro: Acoustic with electric a la Tesla
E-|----------5--0-----------9--------7--------5-----\3------------------------| B-|-------7--------7-----7-----7--------7--------7--\5------------------------| G-|----7--------------7-----------7--------7----------------------------------| D-|-0------------------------------------------------0------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|----------3--0-----------7--------5--------3-----\1------------------------| B-|-------5--------5-----5-----5--------5--------5--\3------------------------| G-|----5--------------5-----------5--------5----------------------------------| D-|--------------------------------------------------0------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|----------1--0--------------------1--0-------------------------------------| B-|-------3--------3-----3--------3--------3-----3----------------------------| G-|----3--------------3--------3--------------3-------------------------------| D-|-------------------------0-------------------------------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|----------3-p2---------!7!-------------------------------------------------| B-|-------3-------3-------!7!-------------------------------------------------| G-|----2-------------2----!7!-------------------------------------------------| D-|-0---------------------!7!-------------------------------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Verse 1: Acoustic and vocals only
E-|--------------0------------------------------------------------------------| B-|------2-h3p2-----------3-\2-------2h3-2------2-----------------------------| G-|-----2------------------------------------------4p2------------------------| D-|----2----------------------------------------------------------------------| A-|-0-------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|-----------------4-----------3-----------2---------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G-|-4b(5)u4--2-----2-----------2-----------4----------------------------------| D-|-------------------3-----------3-----------5-------------------------------| A-|----------------------3-----------3-----------5----------------------------| E-|-1-----------1-----------1----------/3-------------------------------------|
Repeat 4 times
You may ask "how the heck is it possible to play this?" I personally
think that Skeoch has evolved an extra finger to play this stuff. The way
I do it is to make use of my thumb to fret the low E string on the G and
F#, then do a painful bend with my pinky along with the F base note.
Transition Riff 1: Acoustic and electric sound again
E-|----------5--0--------------------3--0--------------------1--0-------------| B-|-------7--------7--------------5--------5--------------3--------3----------| G-|----7--------------7--------5--------------5--------3--------------3-------| D-|-0--------------------0--0--------------------0--0--------------------0----| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|first:----3-p2-----------second:---------3---------------------------------| B-|-------3--------3-----3---------------3------------------------------------| G-|----2--------------2---------------2---------------------------------------| D-|-0------------------------------0------------------------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Repeats twice
Next, play verse 2 times again (Acoustic only)
Verse 2
guitar 1: (on first 1.5 times through, both acoustic and clean electric,
then just the acoustic)
E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-|----------1-----------0-----------1-----------0----------------------------| G-|-------2-----------2-----------2-----------2-------------------------------| D-|----2-----------2-----------2-----------2----------------------------------| A-|-0-----------0-------------------------------------------------------------| E-|-------------------------2-----------2-------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| G-|----------2-----------0-----------2-----------0----------------------------| D-|-------3-----------3-----------3-----------3-------------------------------| A-|----3-----------3-----------3-----------3----------------------------------| E-|-1-----------1-----------1-----------1-------------------------------------|
Play this a total of 6 times (twice before lyrics and guitar 2 come in)
guitar 2: switch to killer distortion
lead in riff:

^
Nasty eh? ( you can get away with omitting the A string...)
do some creative thumb work again.
( hell to transcribe )
Repeat this twice
Transition 2:
guitar 1: (both guitars now electric distortion - tough on stage! )
C D F G Bfl A C# D
E-|-------------------------1-----1-----3-----3-------------------------------| B-|-5-----5-----7-----7-----1-----1-----3-----3-----3-----3-----2-----6----7--| G-|-5-----5-----7-----7-----2-----2-----4-----4-----3-----3-----2-----6----7--| D-|-5-----5-----7-----7-----3-----3-----5-----5-----3-----3-----2-----6----7--| A-|-3-----3-----5-----5-----3-----3-----5-----5-----1-----1-----0-----4----5--| E-|-------------------------1-----1-----3-----3-------------------------------|
guitar 2: (still rockin distortion)
E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| B-|-5-----5-----7-----------------------------------3-------------------------| G-|-5-----5-----7-----------------------------------3-------------------------| D-|-5-----5-----7-----------------------------------3-------------------------| A-|-3-----3-----5-----------------------------5~----1----3b5u3 1 0----4---/5--| E-|------------------(10)\--1~----3-3/5-3~5/7---------------------------------|
^slow slide ^this part is real hard to hear
so I may have gotten a little creative
Verse 3 (Actually same pattern as transition 1)
both guitars: (acoustic electric combo)
E-|----------5--0--------------------3--0--------------------1--0-------------| B-|-------7--------7--------------5--------5--------------3--------3----------| G-|----7--------------7--------5--------------5--------3--------------3-------| D-|-0--------------------0--0--------------------0--0--------------------0----| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|1st-4th---3-p2-----------fifth:----------3---------------------------------| B-|-------3--------3-----3---------------3------------------------------------| G-|----2--------------2---------------2---------------------------------------| D-|-0------------------------------0------------------------------------------| A-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------| E-|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|

After this, play verse 1 pattern on acoustic 3 times with a little crescendo
at the end.
