This is the correction/addition to:
"Where Is My Mind?"
By: The Pixies
Album:Surfer Rosa

Originally Tabbed By: Edgar Aguilera <faguiler@eic.ictnet.es>
Re-tabbed By: Bobby Lukens 
Additions by : KIXX (ecy69@netscape.net)

This tab has nothing to do with the original bass line of the song. I put 
it up here for the ones who want to play/cover this song with more attractive 
groove :) You play "Bridge to Riff x" between each of the appropriate riffs...

Also a note for the re-tabbing of the original: I can not agree with Bobby 
Lukens on that second riff. Though the guitars mute at that point, I 
still hear the C# which our friend has left out in Riff 2. Moreover, I checked 
is right on that riff.

Rest 6 measures
