This isn't probably exact, but it's damn close...like i said, pete's got
two guitars.....this riff repeats twice, the second time GTR. 2 plays a
little melody line:
D---0--------------------------------------0--------------------------------
--------------------
A---------------3----2----0-------------------------------------------------
-----------------
E---------------------------------3-----------------------------------------
---------------
It coincides with the first notes of riff 1...listen to the record...it's
really pretty easy....
The various fills:
sometimes Pete Does his famous "root pull" (a la "Won't get fooled" intro!!)
:
e---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
B------------(3)------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------
G-------------2-------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------
D-------------0-------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------
A-------3-------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
Sometimes he slides the D chord:
e-----------2/5-----2-------------------------------------------------------
------------------------
B-----------3/6----3--------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
G-----------2/5----2--------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------
D---------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------
A---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
E---------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
Just be inventive with the fills...they can be pretty spontaneous!!!! Have
FUN!!!
the verse repeats these picking patterns....but goes like this:
Dsus Cadd9 G/B Dsus
Take a little dope and step out in the air
Dsus Cadd9 G
The stars are all connected to the brain
This continues for the rest of the song including the chorus, although in
the second verse there are bar chords playing softly over the picking.....
D C G D
D C G
The funky riff at the end of the chorus is:
D---5/7--7--7--7--5----------------------------
A---3/5--5--5--5--3----3/5--5--5--5--3-----------------
E---------------------------1/3--3--3--3--1-------------
repeat twice........
That's pretty much it!! there is a tag.....and a solo which I haven't tried
to figure out....this should be fairly accurate, but mail any corrections to
denniss@dns.nxi.com...i hope someone uses this...but remember, it'sprobably
not exact, Pete's too good to transcribe perfectly : )
Enjoy the TAB!!!!
