Subject: Gel by Collective Soul

The intro to Gel by Collective Soul goes like this.
This is my first try at something like this, please bear with me.

------------------------------8-----8----------------------------

-------------6--7-----------------------------------6--7---------------
-----6--7-----------6--7---------7----------6--7----------6--7---7-7-7----

-------------6--7-----------------------------------6--7---------
-----6--7-----------6--7---------7----------6--7----------6--7---

Then from there pause for the drum'd high hat a little and kick in the
distortion.

Update by Terry Sitts (terry.sitts@onlinesys.com)

Doh!!!  I noticed a big typo in my tab for Gel.  The chorus should be:

Chorus
|--------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------------|
|--------8/9---------------------------|
|--8/9---8/9---8/9---9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---|
|--8/9---6/7---8/9---9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9---|
|--6/7---------6/7---7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7---|

And NOT what I had tabbed out before.
