That should have all the guitar parts to the song. Quite simple really.

Helter skelter Yeah
So much for verses and choruses. The rest are pretty much the same,
except that the rest of the verses hit the G chord a little sooner
(at the beginning of the third line of the verse).
Here's the guitar solo in the middle:
[E] [A] [E]
-|----------------------7--7--15b(17)--15b(17)--b(17)15------------- -|----------------------0--0---------------------------------------- -|----------------------9--9---------------------------------------- -|------------------------------------------------------------------ -|------------------------------------------------------------------ -|------------------------------------------------------------------
'Cos here she comes
[A] [E]
-|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -|--b(17)15b(17)15---------------13b(14)------------------b(17)15----------- -|------------------b(14)12---------------b(14)12b(14)12-----------12------- -|---------------------------14----------------------------------------14~-- -|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, there's a neat riff in one of the last verses. I think it
comes right after "will you won't you want me to make you" or something
like that. This is a cool riff with that looonnnng slide.
-|--12--15b(17)--b(17)15--12------12---------------------------------------- -|----------------------------15------1510-----10b(12)--b(12)10--8--------- -|-------------------------------------------9-----------------------7--9--- -|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -|-------------------------------------------------------------------------- -|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
As the song fades into the first ending, there are some nice bend releases,
while the lyrics repeat "coming down fast":
-|--b(17)15------------------------------------------------------------ -|-----------b(17)15--------------------------------------------------- -|--------------------b(16)14------------------------------------------ -|-----------------------------b(14)12--------------------------------- -|--------------------------------------b(14)12------------------------ -|---------------------------------------------------------------------
Later, there's a whole lot of Hendrix-like guitar noise.

When you get to the bottom
You go back to the top of the slide
And you stop and you turn
And you go for a ride
Till you get to the bottom
Then you see me again
Do you, don't you want me to love you?
I'm coming down fast, but I'm miles above you
Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Do you, don't you want me to make you?
Coming down fast I don't want me to break you
Tell me , tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
When you get to the bottom
you go back to the top of the slide
Where you stop and you turn
And you go for a ride
Till you get to the bottom
And I see you again
Do you, don't you want me to love you ?
Coming down fast I'm right above you
Tell me , tell me, tell me the answer
You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
Helter skelter
