Verse 1: Im going to put in Kirk's part of the song.
If you want Jaymz's part of the verses,which is nothing
but a few power chords, go to the CHORD section for the
unforgiven in OLGA..I recently added a correct file to that also.

Kirk's part (Played right along with the words.)

"on and on. He's known"

play Kirk's intro part for the chorus
then for the next verse, repeat the same
as the first verse.
Then, we get ready for the interlude and the solo
(for all of you who dont know, an interlude is
the part right before the distortion sounding solo)
