What can I say about this.  I think, pretty sure, that the violin riff that
plays out through the whole eleven minutes of the song can be played as
(although a several violins would be much better) is:

E
---6------4----------3------2--------|
B
------------------------------4------|
G
-7----------6------5-----------------|
D
-------------------------------------|
A
-------------------------------------|
E
-------------------------------------| The weird thing about this song is that there are many extemporaneous guitar parts and that violin line keeps repeating. Now, what makes this song interesting is the underlying droning bass and the song~s mood swings. I am not sure what chords are being played as opposed to them being major or minor. It is all trivial to me. So keep in mind that my transcription (the chords on top of the words) are merely which note the bass would play. You can play them chord wise (of course), but if you do I suggest you play them in a power-chord way, especially after the first -to be finished would be a relief- part, where the song goes to a new rocking height (you know what I mean). So here we go: Intro:

Okay, that guitar riff (which is repeated six times) is played with the Bb, Db, C,
B
bass parts. About now you should get the whole gist of the song (it really has two parts to it). The guitar riff is:
Bb
Db
C
B
E
---------6-------|---------6-------|-----------8--------|---------7-------|
B
-------6---6-----|-------6---6-----|---------8---8------|-------7---7-----|
G
---7-8-------8-7-|---6-8-------8-6-|----9-10-------10-9-|---8-9-------9-8-|
D

The bass and everything fades and that lovely orchestra thing comes in and everything sort of fades from there. You have to escuse my over transcribing everything. I do not know. Aah, please, if you have any comments, criticisms, or just want to shoot the bull right between the eyes, just email me. I will be greatly appreciated. Bye-bye...
