On this song I like just a little bit of distortion. Not lots, but enough to fuzz it a bit. This is it, should be at least close to the song. Have fun. ----------------------------- Order ----------------------------- -6--6--6--6--6--6-------4---- 1 x 3 -6--6--6--6--6--6--7----4---- 1b x 1 -4--4--4--4--4--4--7----2---- 2 x 4 -------------------5--------- 3 x 3 1 4 x 3 1 x 3 ----------------------------- 1b x 1 ----------------------------- 2 x 4 -6--6--6--6--6--6-------7---- 3 x 3 -6--6--6--6--6--6--7----7---- 4 x 3 -4--4--4--4--4--4--7----5---- 1 x 3 -------------------5--------- 1b x 1 1b 2 x 4 3 x 3 ----------------------------- 4 x 3 ----------------------------- 1 x 3 -6--6--6--6--6--6------------ 1b x 1 -6--6--6--6--6--6--7--7--7--- 5 x 1 -4--4--4--4--4--4--7--7--7--- 6 x 1 -------------------5--5--5--- 4 x 1 2 (muted) 7 x 2 * . . 4 x 5 ---------- ----------------- 3 x 4 ---------- ----------------- 1 x 7 ---------- ---6------------- 1b x 1 -7--7----- ---6--7---------- -7--7----- ---4--7---------- * 8 is played 3 times -5--5----- ------5---------- over top, 2nd guitar. 3 4 ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- -7-----9---------9-----7-------7-----9-- -7-----9---------9-----7-------7-----9-- -5-----7---------7-----5-------5-----7-- ---------------------------------------- 5 . ---------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- ------7----9----9---------7----7---7---- -4----7----9----9----4----7----7---7---- -4----5----7----7----4----5----5---5---- -2-------------------2------------------ 6 ----------------------- ------------------ ----------------------- ------------------ -6--6--6--6--6--6------ -9--8--6--8------- -6--6--6--6--6--6--7--- -------------9---- -4--4--4--4--4--4--7--- ------------------ -------------------5--- ------------------ 7 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PATRICK MAURO University of Victoria - Engineering mailto://pmauro@engr.uvic.ca http://www.engr.uvic.ca/~pmauro/ ------=_NextPart_000_0010_01BF0749.01C29680 Content-Type: text/html; charset="iso-8859-1" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable #----------------------------------PLEASE = NOTE--------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation = of the# #song.
