Fascination Street

 
This is the riff that opens up the song and appears near the end of the 
song: 
 
E|------------------------------------ 
B|-----4-------4------4------1---3---- 
G|-2-3-----2-3----2-3----2-3--------3- 
D|------------------------------------ 
A|------------------------------------ 
E|------------------------------------ 
 
 
After this riff is played three times, the keyboard riff that appears is: 
 
E|-------3--------3----------------------3--------3--6--6-6-6--4--3-- 
B|-4--6-----4--6-----4--1--1--1--4-4--6-----4--6--------------------- 
G|------------------------------------------------------------------- 
D|------------------------------------------------------------------- 
A|------------------------------------------------------------------- 
E|------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
 
This is played two times, then the drums come in and then a weird effect 
appears, I think it is harmonics played like: 
 
E|----------------------------------------- 
B|--7-7--7--7-7--7-7---5--5-5--5--5--5-5-5- <--play the 5 repeatedly for 
G|-----------------------------------------    six times then play, on  
D|-----------------------------------------    the high E string a fifth 
A|-----------------------------------------    fret harmonic repeatedly. 
E|----------------------------------------- 
 
 
This appear throughout the song, also with a staccato C note played on 
the fifth fret of the G string, during the song. 
 
The main part of the song, is mainly the bass riff which repeats itself 
over and over again for eight minutes of the song.  If you don~t know 
alread s indicates a slide, p indicates a pull-off and ~ indicates 
tremolo.  Here is the bassline: 
 
G|------------------------------------------------------ 
D|------------------------------------------------------ 
A|-3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-s-6-6-6--3-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-s-5-5-5- 
E|------------------------------------------------------ 
 
G|----------------------------------------------------------- 
D|----------------------------------------------------------- 
A|----------------------------------------------------------- 
E|-4-4--4-4--4-4--4-4-s-13-13-13--3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-s-6-6-6- 
 
 
Another riff that appears in the song comes after the bassline initially 
plays two times, this riff is: 
 
E|-8--------- 
B|---10------ 
G|------8----  This riff is also played when the drum track kicks out 
D|--------10-  for un momento. 
A|----------- 
E|----------- 
 
 
After that play a C5 chord.  The next riff is that almost -solo- type riff 
but it~s not.  This is it: 
 
E|-------------------------------------------------- 
B|----------4--3---------------------1-------6------ 
G|-------5-------3-3--------------1-------3--------- 
D|----5--------------3-----3p1--1-------3----------- 
A|-3------------------------------------------------ 
E|-----------------------------------------------3-- 
 
 
Now, before Smith comes in with his vocals, that guitar line is (I am not 
sure if I play it an octave higher but here it is): 
 
E|-6~-----------6-6--4-4--3----4----1- 
B|------------------------------------ 
G|------------------------------------ 
D|------------------------------------ 
A|------------------------------------ 
E|------------------------------------ 
 
 
After that a keyboard plays  E --6--4--3-, then Smith starts singing. 
While he is singing, there is that freaky guitar line, played with delay, 
that goes like: 
 
E|-8--11--10--8--8--11--10--8-----11--10--8-----10--11--13- 
B|-----------------------------9-------------8------------- 
G|--------------------------------------------------------- 
D|--------------------------------------------------------- 
A|--------------------------------------------------------- 
E|---------------------------------------------------------
