Refractions in the Plastic Pulse - guitar chords and bass tablatures Refractions in the Plastic Pulse

I have split the song in four parts, because of the chords and the bass tabs:
 

I used fixed font for this song instead of using an image files; if you see layout problem (especially with the bass tabs and the "Scabby Cat") try to set correctly the fixed width font in your browser.

Part 1

D7+  Gm7  F7+  D#7+

D7+                            Gm7
    Ce qui est n'est pas clos,    du point de vue le plus essentiel,

F7+                    D#7+
    Ce qui est ouvert, est à être
 
 

D7+ (RE7+)
Gm7 (SOLm7)
F7+ (FA7+)
D#7+ (RE#7+)

Part 2

A   C#m7   Bm7       Dm7     A#

A          C#m7

Part 3

G               A#
  Une création sans fond,

D                 F
  Sans profit ni victoire

 __________
(*) - The guitar part sounds better with these chords, actually the keyboards play 7+ chords. I don't put chords here; use usual major chords.
