------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Say The Word - J Mascis + The Fog ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: fetusrobot E-mail: fetusrobot@gmail.com Tuning: EADGBe this isn't a complete tab. it's more like a rough estimation of the chords and solo, which i couldn't tab entirely. i just found little bits of the solo and familiar enough chords so, if you have any corrections, they're very welcome. the tab is played with a capo on the 2nd fret, or you could not bother and just play open. it's not really that important considering the solo is the most important part of the song and i don't think J used a capo for it. if you capo you're gonna have to change keys from verse to solo to verse so it's really kinda pedantic to insist on the capo, suit yourself i don't know. -------------------------------------verse------------------------------------- (relative to capo/nut)

it's hard to tab when there's no videos of live performances online. heh. any corrections are very welcome. ************************************ | / slide up | \ slide down | h hammer-on | p pull-off
