TITLE: Trip
ALBUM: The East Bay Sessions
TABBED BY: smashguy37@yahoo.com

Tune down half a step. (Eb, Ab, Db, Gb, Bb, Eb)

ii = octave higher

Example: A G5 in this song is actually an F#5, but since you're tuned down
half a step, you're playing F#5 in the G5 position (aka half a step higher)

Verse 2:
Play each chord once and hold it until the
next chord change. Use a really hard tremolo so
it's almost like the sound is cutting in and out.

And rape me of my love
Then leave?
