Blind Melon
Skinned (song 4 off "Soup")

Transcribed by Thomas Fieno

The rhythm is like:

V           V           V             V
One and-uh, Two and-uh, Three and-uh, Four and-uh

The roots of the chords are played on the hard beats,
except for the Emin where the B note is played
instead of the low E

I play it like:

    CE-----------------| (x32010@1)B---------1---1---|
G---------0---0---|
D---------2---2---|
A---3-------------|
E-----------------|
    One   and-uh
    down  down-up

There is a chord towards the end I called C** which I
don't know the official name of but the fingerings are:

   C**   G (320003@1) Emin (022032@1)E7 (020130@1) Amin (x02413@1)C (x32010@1)E (022100@1)N     3   N     N    N     N
B (x2444x@1)1     3   0     3    1     1
G (320003@1)0     0   0     1    2     0
D (xx0232@1)0     0   2     2    2     2
A (x02220@1)2     2   2     2    0     3
E (022100@1)N     3   N     0    N     N


The C** is the chord that is commonly used for
transferrring a C chord to the Amin chord.  So
play whatever you normally would for doing that.
