   F#        B  C# G#    A         D# E  E

The last time through before the vocals, add a 2 fret bend
at the 9th fret on the G string doubled by a similar bend at
the 12th fret on the high E string after each F# and A.

       F#                            B   C#
With a purposeful grimace and a terrible sound,
G# A                           D#   E     F#
He pulls the splitting high-tension wires down.

Small solo over Main Riff

F#                      B   C#     G#
Helpless people on a subway train
A                     D#    E     F#
Scream "My God" as he looks in on them.

Small solo over Main Riff

   F#                           B    C#
He picks up a bus and throws it back down
G#    A                                      D# E     F#
As he wades through the people in the center of town.

Small solo over Main Riff

Chorus:
E
Oh know, they say he's got to go.
           F#
Go, go, Godzilla!
E
Oh know, there goes Toyko.
           F#
Go, go, Godzilla!

Jam over the Main Riff (x4)

(Chorus)

Breakdown over F# with chants of Godzilla-zilla-zilla-zilla

(Chorus)

F#                      B C#
History shows again and a-gain
G#  A                           D# E
How nature points out the folly of men
F#  B  C#      G# A    D# E
    Godzilla!

Play finale part 4 times stopping the 4th time
on the F# before "Godzilla!"
