[G] I don't really need to be the way I [E5]are
[G]I don't really need to always go so [E5]far

in the booklet, and my english ear's lazy tonight
so you might hear different stuff...]
[G](I DON'T WANT M[D]ISS THE TR[E5]AIN

_____ MAIN ELECTRIC SOLO is mainly played on thin e string :
 
 e -2s3--5--7h8p7--7--5--7---------------------, then
 e -2s3--5--7h8p7--7--5--7--5h7p5--3-----------

However in part 2, and just before the thing becomes
seriously noisy, this solo goes a slight different way :
 
 e -2s3--5--7h8p7--7--5--7---------------------, then
 e -2s3--5--7h8p7--7--5--7--5h7p5--2s7h10p7----, and
 e -7h10p7-7h10p7-11b12-11-10-9-7-6s7-6s7-5s3--, and
 e -0h3-5-5b6b5-3p0h3-----3h5p3--3-------------
 B -------------------0h3----------------------,

then, before the real "plasma" noise, play chords :
 
 C C--->D* D*--->F* F*--->G*
 G*--->A* A*--->C* C*--->A* E*--->D*

_____ LAST PART (calm follows the storm we say in french)
[over a jungle atmospbere, witb tiger and birds...] 
Ride the tiger, ride the tiger, ride the tiger...
C D (x9) Dsus (x7)
 
 e ---0---0------------0---------2--------3-----------

 A ---3-----------------------------------------------
 E ---0-----------------------------------------------, then

[G] You don't really know what it is you a[E5]sk

Take it further, ride the tiger.
