This repeats over the verse, until the little measure before the guitar
solo interlude
 
|-1-----3-----3-3-|-/5-5-/8-8-|

|--------------------------------------------------|
 
And back into the verse.
 
Then the Pre-Chorus:
 
Basically just chords:
 
A5 Em F
Everyone's looking for something
A5 Em F G5
Wanting their piece of the pie
A5 Em F
Searching for their slice of heaven
Em G (E) A5
I gotta have mine, yeah mine....And you're the one I want
 
CHORUS:

|-6----------------/4p2p0-----|-5-5-5-5-5-5----|
|-4-----------------------4---|-3-3-3-3-3-3----|
|---------------------------3-|----------------|
And back into the verse, again.
 
Goes into Pre-Chorus and the Chorus again with variations, until the end of
the chorus, and instead of just going C#m, C. It follows the next chord
progression into the breakdown:
 
C#m / / / / C / / / / Em / / / / G / / / / Asus2 / / / /
 
There are a few rhythm fills in there, that you can get just by picking
around on the chords.
 
(Ends with a trill on the D string, 4th to 7th frets)
 
Now comes the breakdown:
 
|-----------------|--------------|----------------|----5----5-5~~-|
|-----------------|--------------|----------------|----5----5-5~~-|
|-----------2-----|----4---2-2---|---------2------|----4----------|
|-------4-----4~~-|--4---4-4-4---|-----4-----4~~--|--4---4--------|
|-----4---4-----0h|2-------2-2---|---4---4------0h|2--------------|
|-0h2-------------|------------0h|-2--------------|---------------|
 
This repeats with slight variation, then the las measure before the guitar
solo comes in, play an E power chord in this form:
 
E-0
B-5
G-4
D-2
A-x
E-x
 
Then comes the solo, and you basically continue the same chords/pattern as
the above figure. When it kicks into an almost double time, just strum the
chords in rhythm with the drums.
 
Then right before you go back to the introduction lick, you play an
ascending chord figure, that goes
 
B5 C5 C#5
 
Then you're back to the opening part.
 
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|---7---7----7---------------|
|---7---7----7---------------|
|-0-5-0-5-0-/5-4-2-0-2-4-0---|
|--------------------------0-|
 
Then you repeat the chorus, in a drum-fill ridden half time thing.
 
Then the chorus comes in normal.
 
The triplet part goes like this:
 
|------------------|
|------------------|
|------------------|
|------------------|
|--/11-9-7-5-4-2---|
|----------------0-|
 
Chorus continues to repeat with variations, until a new lead rhythm figure
can be heard. It repeats, and begins on the upbeat of 3 (hence the pickup
bar in the next figure.)
 
|--------|------------------------|
|--------|-----------------5-5-5--|
|--------|-----------------4-4-4--|
|------4-|-7---------------2-2-2--|
|--5-7---|-----4-7----------------|
|--------|---5-----5-7-0----------|
This repeats several times, until it is just pouning chords with no melody.
 
D5 A5 E5
 
And fills after each time this is played. The first fill goes something
like this:
 
|--------------------------|
|--T12-p-0-h-5-T12-p-0-h-5-|
|--------------------------|Repeats several times, rapidly.
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|
 
Second fill:
 
|----------T12p0h7-|
|--T12p0h5---------|
|------------------|Repeated several times, rapidly.
|------------------|
|------------------|
|------------------|
 
Third fill
 
Hold this-| While tapping this with right index & middle
|---------|-------------------------------|
|---5-----|-9-(p5)-10-(p5)-11/14\12~~~\---|

Ends by playing 11 D5 powerchords.

VHIII is a great album. Songs like Without You, Josephina, Fire In The Hole and Dirty Water Dog are great. Nice job on the tabs too, glad someone else likes this album besides me :P
