- Planet of Sound: uses a drop D MajorD tuning, so tune yr low E MajorE to a D.
 From: [email protected] (Jonathan Eyre)

The song uses only two chords - A5A5 and D5:

 A5A5 D5D5
e---------
B---------
G--2------
D--2---0--
A--0---0--
D------0--

Start on A5, move to D5, and just alternate between the two. The solo is
just a cheesy blues lick.

You can actually buy a complete book of 'Trompe Le Monde' tab, but it's
not very good.

the chorus is slightly different:
FF    G+G    Bb majorBb   C majorC
FF    C majorC    C majorC    FF

and all the chorus chords are quarter notes.

Tune your guitar down a half step to play this one. You'll
need to hit the low E MajorE chord.
