Repeat This rythmn figure until you hit the bridge to the chorus. The Bridge into the chorus has a bunch of power chords which are held. Listen to the tune and you'll get the picture....           Chorus (Lyrics go 'HELPLESS....!')   Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 A repeat 3x| A G | A G A e|---------------------------------|------------------|----------------- B|---------------------------------|------------------|----------------- G|--------------------------------*|-----------------*|----------------- D|------------------7p5---------5-*|-----------5-5-5-*|-----------5-5-7- A|----------------------7-6-7-6----|-----------5-5-5--|-----------5-5-7- E|--5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5----------------|-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-3--|-5-5-5-5-5-3-3-5-     By this I mean play Part 1 three times, then play Part 2. Then you play Part 1 three times again and finish the chorus with Part 3. Work with me on this one... I'm not sure about the part 1 section... but this is close....   Now return to ryth. Fig 1 amd play it till you hit the chorus a second time... do the chorus again and then play rythmn Fig 1 again until you hit the little Newstead bass solo, after which you hit a second bridge. I prefer to enter into this section with a jumping, banging pick slide. In other words I bounce the pick off the low E, A and D while sliding the edge down the fretboard... Anyway it sounds real cool...   Bridge 2     |<-------Repeat 4x |<------Repeat 4x|<------Repeat 4x|<------Repeat 4x| e|------------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B|------------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| G|-----------------*|---------------*|---------------*|---------------*| D|-----------------*|---------------*|---------------*|---------------*| A|----0-2----0h2p0--|---2-4---2h4p2--|---3-5---3h5p3--|---5-7---5h7p5--| E|--2------2--------|-4-----4--------|-5-----5--------|-7-----7--------|   |<-------Repeat 2x|<------Repeat 2x| e|-----------------|----------------|----------------------------------- B|-----------------|----------------|----------------------------------- G|----------------*|---------------*|----------------------------------- D|----------------*|---------------*|---------------7-9---5-7---3-5----- A|----3-5---3h5p3--|---5-7---5h7p5--|---3-5---5-7-9-----7-----5--------- E|--5-----5--------|-7-----7--------|-5-----7---------------------------     | | Rythmn Fig 2. || End ryth.
