    Motion Sickness: Live R...

There are so many versions of this song that I don't really think there are any
concrete rules around how to play it. 

INTRO:

   ? E7 E

e|-0-0-0--0-0-0-3-3-3-3-0-0-0--------|
B|-0-0-0--0-0-0---------0-0-0-2-2-2-2|
G|-1-1-1--1-1-1---------1-1-1--------|
D|-0-0-2--0-0-2---------0-0-2--------|
A|-2-2-2--2-2-2---------2-2-2--------|
E|-3-0-0--3-0-0---------3-0-0--------|


For the verses, the chords E and A are picked and sometimes strummed (I haven't
really figured that out yet) and B7 is strummed once, nice and hard. Have fun
playing around with it.

   E  A  B7
e|-0--0--2-|
B|-0--2--0-|
G|-1--2--2-|
D|-2--2--1-|
A|-2--0--2-|
E|-0-----0-|

INTRO... next verse, etc.

Continue the same sorta pattern for the rest of the song. After you've practiced
enough, you can put on your best one piece red cowboy suit and play it for alla
yer friends.
