PLAY WITH ME - Extreme  

Tuned down 1/2 step to Eb  (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)

Somebody posted just the solo of this to another newsgroup about 3 years ago
but i've long since lost that and have worked out a bit of the rest of the song
would greatly appreciate it if anyone could make some additions.


Intro:

e---------------------------------12----------------19-17-16-17-19-17-16-17-20-
b---12----------13----15-13-12-13-------18-17-16-17----------------------------
g------14-13-14----------------------------------------------------------------

                                             tr      tr
e---17-19-20-19h20p19-17-16-17---------------------------------17\--
b------------------------------17-18--------------------------------
g------------------------------------19----17(19)--16(17)--14-------

followed by a bit of low blocking 
and then

e--------------------------------------------------------
b-------------------------------------------?------------
g-------------------------------------------?------------
D-----------------------0-1-2-3-4-5---5-----?------------
A-------------0-1-2-3-4-------------5---5----------------
E---0-1-2-3-4--------------------------------------------
                                               (dive)
some sort of harmonic goes in the general area of those question marks

The following three riffs are used behind the verses.
e--------------------
b--------------------
g---2--4--5--4-2-----
D---2--4--5--4-2-----
A---0--x--x--x-0-----
E--------------------

e---------------------------------------------------0----
b---------------------------------------------------0----
g---5---------------------------4-------------------0----
D---5---------------------------4------4-----2-----------
A---3---?-----?------?----------2--2-2-2-----2-----------
E----------------------------------------3-2-0---x-------
I just hammer away on that C there (?) as I cannot reach what I think Nuno plays

e---5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5----------
b---5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5-----5-5----------
g-------5^6-----5^6-----5^6-----5^6-----5^6-----5^6------
D--------------------------------------------------------
A--------------------------------------------------------
E--------------------------------------------------------

These runs are played just before the chorus.

e--------------------------------------3\2--3\2--3\2--3\2--3\2---------
b--------------------------------------3\2--3\2--3\2--3\2--3\2---------
g-------------------------------4-3-4--4\3--4\3--4\3--4\3--4\3---------
D------------------------5-4-5-----------------------------------------
A----------2-1-2--5-4-5------------------------------------------------
E---3-2-3--------------------------------------------------------------


e----------------------------------------------------------------------
b---------------------------------------8-7--8\7--8\7--8\7--8\7--8\7---
g-----------------------------4-3-4-7-6------7\6--7\6--7\6--7\6--7\6---
D-----------------------5-4-5------------------------------------------
A----------2-1-2--5-4-5------------------------------------------------
E---3-2-3--------------------------------------------------------------
Those last few notes in that run are played quite fast so I am not sure as to 
their exact order but just fiddle around and you'll soon get it.

The next three riffs are used behind the chorus.
                                              ah b  p   p   p
