-------------------- transcribed by | Michael R. Oliver | -------------------- this is a pretty good song off the sixteen stone album. it isn't that hard to play but is really cool to play. here is my best try at it. chords used for this song: C# |--4--| B |--2--| G |--3--| F# |--2--| Bb |-----| A |-----| |--4--| |--2--| |--3--| |--2--| |-----| |-----| |--6--| |--4--| |--3--| |--2--| |-----| |-----| |--6--| |--4--| |--5--| |--4--| |--8--| |--7--| |--4--| |--2--| |--5--| |--4--| |--8--| |--7--| |-----| |-----| |--3--| |--2--| |--6--| |--5--|
these next chords, i don't know what they are called, so I will make my own names for them (they are correct, i just don't know what they are called. C#(I) |------| B(I) |------| G(I) |------| F#(I) |------| |------| |------| |------| |------| |--13--| |--11--| |------| |------| |--11--| |--9---| |--12--| |--11--| |------| |------| |--10--| |--9---| |------| |------| |------| |------| ============================================================================ guitar parts: ------------- ======= verse: ------ the verse very simply goes like this (this is also the first thing you hear when you play the song. At times the other guitar comes in and plays the same chord at a different spot on the fretboard. when that happens, then you play the C#(I), the B(I), the G(I), and the F#(I) progression while another guitar just plays the regular verse riff. ====================== verse riff: C#-B-G-F# (you must play the C# and the C#(I), the B and the B(I), the G and the G(I), and the F# and the F#(I) at the same time for the song to sound right) ====================== when the other guitar comes in and plays the C#(I), the B(I) etc., you could definately hear it in the begining and he plays this progression at various places throughout the song. Chorus: ------- the chorus is pretty easy, it goes like this F#-Bb-F#-Bb-A rythem fill #1: --------------- at .23 seconds, .47 seconds, etc. the guitar plays this, it just slides down from a G to an F#: it goes: E|--------| B|--------| G|--------| D|--5//4--| A|--5//4--| E|--3//2--| **another part of the song that occurs at 3.01 seconds in the song has the following progression Bb-A-F# the bass just plays the above progression (but if you wanted to you could play along with the bass with an clean electric guitar). A guitar plays the below part a couple of times. E|---------------------| B|---------------------| G|----------15---------| D|------15-----15--13--| A|--13-----------------| E|---------------------| bass guitar: ------------ this is played during the verse (when just the bass, drums and vocals are going) and is played when the guitar plays the C#-B-G-F# progression verse: G|----------------------------| D|----------------------------| A|--4-4-4-2-2-2---------------| E|--------------3--3-3-2-3-0--| -------------------------------------- if you have any suggestions, questions, additions, subtractions, corrections, any good recipies for kiesch, requests, or you just can't understand a thing i wrote, just e-mail me (OllieOne@aol.com) p.s. download it and print it out in notepad in windows oh......by the way, i have most of body figured out and most of monkey, i should post them pretty soon.
