README: Over the past couple years I have seen several ASCII tabs for
        Fugazi songs.  Not until recently did I actually dig out the old
        record and realize how far off most were.  So, I played along
        with the songs a couple times to find something that sounds better:
        Think of this as an improvement to the already available tab.

        I don't claim that it's perfect -- I am not a big Fugazi fan and
        this is typed from memory.


First, here is some bass tab:

The first time only, this is played:

  -----2-.-------2-.-------------
  ---2---4---4-4---4-------------
  -4-------------------4-4-4-4-4-
  -------------------------------

Then this is through most of the song:

  ---------------2-.-------------
  ---2-3-4---4-4---4-------------
  -4-------------------4-4-4-4-4-
  -------------------------------

Here is my version of the guitar rythm that enters next:

  || --------------------------------- ||
  ||:---------------------------------:||
  || --------------------------------- ||
  || --------------------------------- ||
  ||:-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-:||
  || -2-2-2-2-2-2-2-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4- ||

                          Note 1: you can hear some chord shifting because
                                  he plays the second chord differently --
                                  you can try this one: -6-  or  -6-
                                                        -4-      -4-
                                                        ---      -4-

Before the change, only the first chord of the previous rythm is used,
then the next part goes:

    ---------------------------------------------------
    ---------------------------------------------------
    -6-6-6-6-6-----------------4-4-4-4-4---------------
    -6-6-6-6-6---2-2-2-2-2-2---4-4-4-4-4---6-6-6-6-6-6-
    -4-4-4-4-4---2-2-2-2-2-2---2-2-2-2-2---7-7-7-7-7-7-
    -------------0-0-0-0-0-0---------------------------
                                           ^^^^^^^^^^^
                                   Note 2: he probably plays more notes in
                                           this chord and plays it lower on
                                           the neck, or maybe it's wrong.
                                           Try something like: -1-
                                                               -2-
                                                               -2-
                                                               -0-

Then we have this part, a variation of the main rythm:

  ------------------------                                        ---
  ------------------------                   Note 3:              ---
  ----------------6-6-6-6-                   the chord that       -9-
  -4-4-4-4-4------6-6-6-6-                   is added sometimes   -9-
  -4-4-4-4-4------4-4-4-4-                   (e.g. at the end of  -7-
  -2-2-2-2-2--------------                   the song) is an E:   -0-A cooler variation of this part appearing a few times is:

  ----------------------------------
  ----------------------------------
  -------------------------6---6----
  ---------4-----4---------6---6----
  ---------4-----4-4-4-4-4---4---4--
  -2-2-2-2---2-2--------------------
