INTRO - The intro kicks in with a 12 bar tub-thumping session (drum solo to
those who wish to split hairs). Guitars 1 & 2 then kick in with
Guitar 1 playing rhythm whilst Guitar 2 picks out a palm muted riff
which reoccurs with variations, throughout the song. The last 4 bars
(where Guitar 2 switches to rhythm) are repeated twice.

the MAIN RIFF/SOLO.

VERSE 3 & CHORUS - To play correctly ignore the first 8 bars of VERSE 1/2 &
CHORUS. Also the CHORUS is repeated twice so you need to
repeat the bars from 'In a big country...' again.


BRIDGE 2 - Repeat the following 4 bars 4 times, but replace the final bar with
the final bar from BRIDGE 1

MAIN RIFF/SOLO - as before


VERSE 4 & CHORUS - as per VERSE 3 & CHORUS although this time the chorus is
repeated 3 times instead of twice (the second time it's
played only drums & bass play the first 5 bars)


OUTRO - Guitar 2 plays it's guitar part from the chorus twice. Guitar 1 does as
follows - play the MAIN RIFF/SOLO and then repeat the first bar of it 3
times. Now repeat the MAIN RIFF/SOLO and finish by playing the following
bar 3 times.
