Artist: White Stripes
Song: Jack The Ripper

Ohhkay..the white stripes dont have a bassist (yeah i know you already know 
that) so this was kinda hard to tab. plus the only version of this song is live 
so that kinda made it even harder. but yeah this hopefully should work for 
you. awesome song.

Main Riff
G----------------------------------
D----------------------------------
A----------------------------------
E-1-1-3-1-4-1-6-4------------------

Interlude
G----------------------------------
D----------------------------------
A----------------------------------
E-3-1-4--5-5-5-55-5-77-5-3-2-0-----

G-----------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------------------------------------------------
A-----------------------------------------------------------
E---5--3-0------5--3-0------5--3-0---7---0-77-5-3-2-0-------

For the solo just play the main riff. or if you want it like the song play nothing 
(but the main riff should go fine with it)

Outro
G----------------------------
D----------------------------
A----------------------------
E---0--0--0--0--000--0--0-2--

hope that helps.

	Great song, but who exactly is Jack the Ripper in this song? I thought at first it was a song about the famous murderer, then it came to me while watching the song on 'Under Blackpool Lights'. Jack (White) the Ripper, a ripper during the guitar solo.

	"Maybe Jasper does the astro, Maybe Jasper does the astro, Maybe Jasper does the astro astro, Maybe Lily does the astro, Maybe Lily does the astro, Maybe Lily does the astro astro, Maybe Jackson does the astro, Maybe Jackson does the astro, Maybe Jackson does the astro astro, Maybe Tesla does the astro, Maybe Tesla does the astro, Maybe Edison is AC/DC," ^^ Thats ASTRO... the last 3 verses are Jack the Ripper. At least I think they are.

	Also, the riff sounds like/almost is the song 'Spy To Spy'.

	Jack The Ripper is a cover of Screaming Lord Sutch's song of course - this version of going into Jack The Ripper after Astro is only done live.

	It's about how Jack rapes Meg and rips apart her asshole, Jack The Ripper.
