(Some guitar solo that I can't figure out with some pinch artificial harmonics.)

 

(with verse guitar part):

 

I am one as you are three

Try to find messiah in your trinity

Your city to burn

Your city to burn

Try to look for something in your city to burn

 

You'll burn (unison guitars)

(verse)

Time is right for a guiding light

Try to turn to reasons in your bitter life

Your city to burn

Your city to burn

Try to look for something in your city to burn

 

You'll burn (unison guitars, play twice)

(verse guitar part):

See you.. you're the only one who

See you.. I am one

---------------------

---------------------

----------9-11-------

---------------11~\--

See you.. you're the only one who

See you.. (obviously I'm not sure about the lyrics)

(Back into more of Billy soloing and James playing his rhythm part with D'arcy.

This goes on for about 8 bars or so)

 

Basically the "See you... blah blah" part again with Billy playing some sort of

F#7 chord over it... either:

 

----- --11-or-9--

----- --10--

--9-- --11--

-11-- or ------ which isn't really an F#7, but you get the idea.

--9-- ------

----- ------

 

End on the F# chord hits.
