  I lost my copy of "Grand Illusion" about ten years ago, so excuse any flaws

  in this partial tab.  I used to twiddle with this song and still remember

  how I played it.  It's pretty much based on standard power chords.  The only

  tricky part is the hammer on/pull off combination (you'll know the one I

  mean when you try it)--better alternatives would be of interest, but I

  could never come up with anything easier that sounded right.

  h = hammer on

  p = pull off

  Vertical lines indicate natural breaks in the song--not necessarily

    actual measures

  The above is repeated over the verse.  The chorus then goes something like

  this (my memory could be a little weak here):

  

  -7-7-7-7-7-8--7-5--|--7-7-7-7-7-7-5-3--|--7-7-7-7-7-8--7-5-3-5--|

  -9-9-9-9-9-10-9-7--|--9-9-9-9-9-9-7-5--|--9-9-9-9-9-10-9-7-5-7--|

  -9-9-9-9-9-10-9-7--|--9-9-9-9-9-9-7-5--|--9-9-9-9-9-10-9-7-5-7--|

  -7-7-7-7-7-8--7-5--|--7-7-7-7-7-7-5-3--|--7-7-7-7-7-8--7-5-3-5--|

  

  

  You can opt not to use full barre chords, but I prefer them for this song.

  All I remember of the lyrics is "You are the queen of the United States/ A

  disease for which there is no cure".  My mind is blank after that.
