This is guitar piece two that is played over the above piece. The following piece is played on a slide (actually a screwdriver---your choice).

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Here's the second part of Monheim where all the music comes together, and whatnot.
But first: there's some droning parts in the background just before this (a scale of the notes):
|----------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------| This isn't exactly what's played, just most of the
|----------------------------------------| notes that they are using in that part.
|---------------------2--3--5--7--9--10--|
|--2--3--5--7--9--10---------------------|
|----------------------------------------|

Now, on to the second part of Monheim:
Guitar 1
                       x2                         x2                                       back
|------------------------|--------------------------|------------------------------------------|
|------------------------|--------------------------|------------------------------------------|
|*------------------8---*|*----------------8----5--*|-----------------------------------------*|
|*-5--------7-----------*|*-----5------------------*|--5---7---5----3---5---3-----2---3---5---*|
|------------------------|--------------------------|------------------------------------------|
|------------------------|--------------------------|------------------------------------------|

Guitar 2 plays the following on a screwdriver and/or slide (your choice)

|------16~~~~~~~~~~~~(16)/17/19~~~~~~\\16~~~~~~~~------|
|------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------| There's a lot of improv on those notes
|------------------------------------------------------| and other notes, but I don't want to tab
|------------------------------------------------------| a page on that part.
|------------------------------------------------------|

Guitar 3 plays this with guitar 2: each note is plucked frequently.
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|---14---14--14--14--14--15--15--17--17---17--17---14-14--14--14---|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------|


Okay, this is the part just before the words to Chart #3 come in:
The screwdriver in Guitar 2 plays the same thing over and over and guitar 1 plays this:
These following notes are picked more than once, it's just to show you what to play:
Also, use different levels of distortion throughout diff. parts.

|---4----5---7---4-------4----5---7---4------4----5---5---4---4----2--4---2----------------------|
|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------3---5----2----3----|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

Then end the first half of the song on the guitar two screwdriver part, which fades off into the
words of Chart #3 on a falsetto slide.


Here's the part at the end of Chart #3:
guitar 1
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|-----------------8--8------------5--5---7--7----------------|
|---5--5---7--7------------5--5--------------------3---3-----|
|------------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------------|

Then that guitar stops and changes to this: oh, btw, this is around 12:40 in the song.
Guitar 1:
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|
|-------------8--------5----7-----| repeat over and over
|-----5---7--------5--------------|
|---------------------------------|
|---------------------------------|

Then, guitar 2 comes in over that after it is repeated quite a few times:
|----------------------------|
|----------------------------|
|-----------7--8--7-----10---| repeat over and over
|--------7-------------------|
|---10-----------------------|
|----------------------------|

After those two parts play over each other several times, guitar 3 enters with it:
these notes shift and change, this is just a visualization for you.
|---------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------|
|---14--14---10--10----12--12--9--9--10--10---|
|---------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------|


And that's it.
Guitars 1 and 2 from above repeat until the songs ending with violin, piano, and drums.
I hope this is helpful to everyone.

I think you've mixed up some song parts and names. Monheim is the peice after Murray Ostril gives his little schpiel on Coney Island from "Sleep." Hung Over as the Queen in Maida Vale and Chart #3 are the same names for the part in "Static" where the crazy preacher is droning on.

Otherwise, I think all the notes are righ, even though I can't tell what songs they're from =]
