 Subject: Ozzy Osbourne transcript
 Here's my transcription of "I Don't Want to Change the World" by Ozzy Osbourne.
  
  Written by: Ozzy Osbourne, Zakk Wylde, Randy Castillo, Lemmy Kelmister
  
  As appears on Ozzy Osbourne's "No More Tears"
  
  D# tuning
  
  Legend: / = Slide up
          \ = Slide down
          ^ = hammer on / pull off
          ( ) = bend
          ph = pinch harmonic
 	 pm = palm muting  
 
  MAIN RIFF:
 D# |-----------------------------------|---------------------------|
 A# |-----------------------------------|---------------------------|
 F# |---2--------2--------------5--5/7--|---2--------2-----2--------|
 C# |---2--------2--------------5--5/7--|---2--------2-----2--------|
 G# |---0--x--x--0--x--x--x--x--3--3/5--|---0--x--x--0--x--0--------|
 D# |-----------------------------------|---------------------------|
  
  |----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
  |----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
  |---2--------2--------------5-/-7--|---2--------2--------5(7)ph-------5(7)ph---|
  |---2--------2--------------5-/-7--|---2--------2------------------------------|
  |---0--x--x--0--x--x--x--x--3-/-5--|---0--x--x--0--x--x------------------------|
  |----------------------------------|-------------------------------------------|
  
  The whole song primarely goes along those lines... When he comes to the refrain, it
  switches to:
  
  									 pm.......
  |---------------|-------|----------------|-----------------------------------------|
  |---------------|-------|----------------|------------------12(14)--12-------------|
  |--2------------|---0---|---0---------0--|--2---------2-----------------11--9--11--|
  |--2--------2---|---0---|---0---------0--|--2---------2----------------------------|
  |--0--------2---|-------|----------------|--0---------0----------------------------|
  |---------------|---3---|---3---------3--|-----------------------------------------|
    I don't want to change...
 
 
  |-------------------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
  |---------------------3---|---3---------3----3--------------------------------------|
  |--2------------------0---|---0---------0----0---12(14)ph-----12(14)ph-----12(14)ph-|
  |--2-----------2------0---|---0---------0----0--------------------------------------|
  |--0-----------2----------|--------------------------------0------------0-----------|
  |---------------------3---|---3---------3----3--------------------------------------|
  
  Then, right before the solo:
  
  |------------------------------------------------------------------|
  |------------------------------------------------------------------|
  |------------------------------------------------------4-----2-----|
  |--2---4---4---4-4-4-4---2---4---4-4---2---4---4-4-2---4-----2-----|
  |--2---4---4---4-4-4-4---2---4---4-4---2---4---4-4-2---2-----0-----|
  |--0---2---2---2-2-2-2---0---2---2-2---0---2---2-2-0---------------|
  
  I haven't got around to the solo, yet.  Besides, it's always better to stay along the
  lines of the original version, but express yourself by incorporating some original
  material in the solo (taping, etc).
