WARM WET CIRCLES 
   by MARILLION
      From the album CLUTCHING AT STRAWS

Transcribed by GNOLIVOS

I've seen this song transcribed a couple of times with capo on 6th fret.
Mr Rothery plays this with capo on 2nd fret, and completely different fingering 
than what I've seen tabbed.  So I took the time to lay it all out for the purists.

This is the correct way of playing it as per Rothery's live videos.  
Capo on 2nd fret!

The following Fingering diagrams will help with finger positioning throughout:

FINGERING 1 -- this is how Rothery does it!
|-------|
|---11--| Pinky (slide to 12 and back to 11 as needed).
|---11--| Ring
|---11--| Middle
|-------|
|-------|

FINGERING 2
|-------| (use pinky and index finger to fret high E string notes as needed).
|----9--| Index
|---11--| Ring
|---11--| Middle
|-------|
|-------|

FINGERING 3
|-------|
|---7---| Index
|---8---| Middle
|---9---| Ring
|-------|
|-------|

FINGERING 4
|-------|
|----9--| Index
|---10--| Middle
|---11--| Pinky
|---11--| Ring
|-------|

FINGERING 5
|-------|
|-------| 
|---6---| Index
|---8---| Middle
|---9---| Ring
|-------|

FINGERING 6
|-------|
|-------| 
|---4---| Index
|---6---| Ring
|-------|
|-------|

FINGERING 7 (like an E chord)
|-------|
|-------| 
|---3---| Index
|---4---| Ring
|---4---| Middle (not played).
