"Smile"
            G
The ship is high
    Gsus                G           C2
And I don't know how to make it down
              G
But I'm gonna try 
    Gsus       G              C2
To slip inside mind of a clown
        G
Follow me 
Gsus             G           C2
Thinkin' I could save you now
        G
Follow me
Gsus             G           C2
Thinkin' I could turn a frown
       (RiffA 3x or listen to the song)
Into smile

RiffA: (Think they used some delay for this one but you can always 
       just pick each note)       
e--------------------------------------------------------------------
B-15.15.15.15.15-16.16.16--13.13.13.13.13-15.15.15--11.11.11.11.11---

(While playing RiffA the music will start to build up and get heavy 
there are two guitar parts for this part of the song Guitar1 with 
dist and Guitar2 with dist and a little flange or phase.)

Into a smile....
G1: (similar chords as of the verse but distorted)G, Gsus, G, C2
G2:         repeat 3x            |

G-|-----12----------12-----------|-----------------------------------
D=|==============================|===================================
A=|==============================|===================================
E=|==============================|===================================
(And then for the finale both guitars plays the Guitar1 part(rhythm) 
together but you can also improvise and lead over that part and kick 
butts it's in Key of G major or E minor)

Alright Rock on axe slingers !!
