Ozzy
Gets Me Through
Tabbed By: Ben Baker
I got the post taps part of the solo(about the middle of it)
from Mach3's tab at OLGA, at least part of it, I went into detail
about the wah a little more than he did, but its still his, so
props to him.
When Zakk played this in the studio he didn't palm mute the verse,
like everyone's been saying, he plays it open with the volumed turned
down, but I still lightly palm mute it to muffle it a bit for the lyrics

Distortion (I tap here, some people pick the note)
[Main Riff]
I've seen many people striking the fifth fret of the E string
and hammering on seven...however, if you think its easier you
can hammer on the A and D string, as shown in paranthesis.
Also when playing this there are parts where you have to stop
the strings from ringing, under which I'll put a star, you should
be able to figure it out tho.
In the belowriff u have to bend the E string(fretted 2) to G, so
its about a quarter bend.

[Verse]
This isn't actually palm muted, as I said before, its played open
but with the volume turned down..however..I still palm mute it
live because u don't really have time to toy with the volume.

Solo:
Use a wah all the way open(pressed forward)
Also, in the beginning of the solo many tabs have had it played
on the G string..in the video and in concert(my friend saw them,
so I'm going by his word here) Zaak in fact plays it on the B

Lyrics/Song Flow:
[Intro]
[Main Riff] x2
[Verse]
I'm not the kind of person you think I am
I'm not the anti christ or the iron man
I have a vision that I jsut can't control
I feel I've lost my spirit and sold my soul
[Main Riff] x2
Got no control
[Verse]
I try to entertain you the best I can
I wish I started walking before I ran
But I still love the feeling I get from you
I hope you never stop cause its gets me through
[Main riff z2]
Its gets my through yeah
[Interlude]
The feelings that I hide behind
Sometimes reality's unkind
The nightmares come for me at night
I dread the long and lonely nights
[Solo]
[Main Riff x2]
[Verse]
I'm not the kind of person you think I am
I'm not the anti christ or the iron man
I have a vision that I jsut can't control
I feel I've lost my spirit and sold my soul
[Main Riff x6]
I'm just trying to leave you
I'm just trying to leave you
I'm just trying to leave you
I'm just trying to leave you
