Title: Sitting with the dog
Transcribed by: Andrew Biles
I'm pretty sure this is a live version, haven't got the cd so can't
tell (www.mp3fanatic.com for the version I'm using).
Most of the order I've written out along the way, from what I remember it
being anyway. Lyrics down the bottom as well.
Most of the open E string notes are palm muted so I haven't written it under
most of the tab.
A whammy bar is used on the version I've downloaded in the outro, but if you
don't have one, try bending the strings or just simply sliding up a fret.
Quick Key:
* = harmonic
^ = bend
. (under tab) = palm mute (read above)
x = mute
h = hammer
p = pull off
\ = slide
tremolo = play fast

Lyrics (www.seeklyrics.com):
Well I take each step very carefully
And I will make no decision now
And these are the right words to say
Are there all the right words to say
Just get up or be on your way
But you're sitting with the dog
I follow a backwards god
Sitting with the dog, I follow a backward god
Sitting with the dog, I follow a backward god
Sitting with the dog, I follow a backward god
I'm dumb and I'm ugly and I am uncreative
Dumb and ugly and uncreative
And these are the right words to say
Are these all the right words to say
Just get up and get out of my way
But you're sitting with the dog
I follow a backwards god
Sitting with the dog, I follow a backward god
Sitting with the dog, I follow a backward god
Sitting with the dog, I follow a backward god
Here's to another breath
For the hole in the sky (x3)
Here's to another breath
And we're sitting with the dog
Sitting with the dog
Like a bump upside a log
Yeah I'm sitting with the dog
