"Insomnia and the Hole in the Universe"
by +Live+
#7 on Secret Samadhi

transcribed by Andy Dufresne (dufresne@deskmedia.com)

This is probably my favorite song on this album.  As usual,
play it tuned down ½ step.  All of the chords are listed as
they would be played in standard tuning.  I didnt mess with
the solo, it is a bunch of variations on the D/Dsus kind of
stuff in the intro.  I think these chords are pretty accurate,
but please send me any corrections you may find (or the solo).
Here it is:

INTRO:
	F	D		F	D	Dsus	    C
eb------1-------2---------2-----1-------2--------3-----0----0-
bb------1-------3------3--------1-------3-----3-------------1-
Gb------2-------2---2-----------2-------2--2----------------0-
Db------3-------0----------(0)--3-------0-------------------2-
Ab------3-------0---------------3-------0-------------------3-
Eb------1-------X---------------1-------X-------------------0-


VERSE:  (F	D Dsus)

This is another cool song from Live's latest album.  The album's really good,
but it's something that definitely grows on you as you listen to it.

Play this 4x's.
(*****listen to the chorus to figure out the exact struming pattern, because
	it changes slightly when he sings, "Crazy Lady, ..."*****)

That's pretty much the whole song, except for a few lead riffs that are played.
Again, listen to the song to figure out what parts go where.
Have fun!
