Steam by Phish

Steam by Phish

Quick explanation of how this is laid out...
When I have a chord name listed play the riff that's listed below the chord name below
me (except for the very last chord [G*])
for an example let's say the song is at the part where Trey is singing
"There is a tower...
You would be playing this E-------------------------|
             B-------------------------|
             G---------------5----3----|
             D-----5-------5-----------|
             A-----------5-------------|
             E--3------3---------------|

Intro= SOUND OF TEAPOT STEAMING... then Chord diagramG minorGm x4

Chord diagramG minorGm
there is the tower like a solitary flower standing in the snow as the wolves all wait below
Chord diagramC minorCm
and you're walking on the ledge throwing bread crusts off the edge
Chord diagramG minorGm
as you sing in voice so clear and my name I think I hear
Chord diagramF minorFm
concealed within the theme
Chord diagramC minorCm          Chord diagramG minorGm
then it disappears as steam

Chord diagramG minorGm
and I'm standing far below watching wolves you seem to know as your voice still carries
on in your never-ending song
Chord diagramC minorCm
and my blood begins to boil and my bones melt into oil
Chord diagramG minorGm
hissing liquid in the snow as my body sinks below
Chord diagramF minorFm
and a ripple sends a beam
Chord diagramC minorCm               Chord diagramG minorGm
of sunlight dancing through the steam

Chord diagramG minorGm
my now unfettered soul has direction I control to your tower I draw near but do I see a
trace of fear?
Chord diagramC minorCm
the approaching sound of hooves now scatters all the wolves
Chord diagramG minorGm
you briefly watch the horseman ride then you quickly run inside
Chord diagramF minorFm
the rider's weapons gleam
Chord diagramC minorCm             Chord diagramG minorGm
while the horse's nostrils steam

Chord diagramG minorGm
there's no time to reflect, who is this man? I must protect you in the rider's hand I
see he holds your prison's only key
Chord diagramC minorCm
he glances up and glares and then he starts to climb the stairs
Chord diagramG minorGm
I can tell you're terrified so I quickly go inside
Chord diagramF minorFm
but then I hear a fateful scream
Chord diagramC minorCm             G*
as your soul joins mine as steam

JAM!
Not exactly sure what the chords are for this I would recommend just usinf the verse
riffs and just kind of have fun with it
(That's what Phish is all about anyway)

To get Trey's style down you really have to listen to the song check out the New Year's
Version for the best quality on youtube.
