PM____________________________|
The little interlude with a VERY SPECIAL EFFECT (!) is very difficult to
transcribe. When I play this part, I switch my WAH on and I play an E5
power chord. I follow the rythm with my wah pedal.
The last bar of the 3rd verse have a slight variation of the main riff.
(That's when UDO sings : "We are born to die")
|-5--5--4--3--2-----X-X-X-X---| After that, go directly to the chorus
|-3--3--2--1--0-----X-X-X-X---| Don't pass by the prechorus (and don't collect
200$ !!! 8-> )
Here's the riffs for the solo part (beginning at the end of the 2nd chorus)
PM on low A________________| PM similar---------|
Rythm of the next riff (the solo over this riff follow)
|----------------H-P---------|-----------------------|
Play this riff 2 times then play the same thing 2 times again but play
it on the 6th (E) and 5th (A) strings instead of the 5th and 4th.
After that replay 2 times this riff on the 5th and 4th strings (like the 2
first time!)
The solo over this riff : _______________________ ___________________
|1. |2. H P
|------------------H-P---------|-----------------------|-------/\-/\--------|

|-9-12-11-9-11---------------12-11-9-|-9-12-11-9----------P----------|
I'm not able to transcribe the two other bars but I know that this is a run
in E aeolien ( E F# G A B C D ).

After that play the riff at the beginning of the solo part twice :
PM on low A________________| PM similar---------|
Now you're in the solo, the rythm is the main riff of the song.
AH__| NH__________________|
That's it and don't forget : PM = Palm muting (I haven't written
them all. Listen to the tape to know
where they are!)
NH = Natural harmonic
AH = Artificial hormonic
B = Bend.
X = Muffled strings.
/,\ = Slide up, down
H P
/\, /\ = Hammer on, pull off.
