           C'MON
       FROM SOUNDS OF TURNIPS

      Transcribed by Adam Morris

  This has got to be the most UNpumpkinesque
  song I have heard by SP, but it is a GREAT
  song. Very STPish I reckon.

 Standard Tuning

 INTRO is is a relatively slow slide down from
 the 12th fret on the low E-string

 Main Riff (Played with strong palm muting later)
|------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------|
|------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------*----------------------|
|-0--0-0--7--10~~--0-7-10~--0--0-0-7h10-6~~-0-0-0-5\3--|

   Replace this 0 with a 6 each 2nd time played.

CHORUS
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|-4--4--4/7-7/9-9-9-\-4--4--7--7--7-7----------------|
|-4--4--4/7-7/9-9-9-\-4--4--7--7--7-7----------------|
|-2--2--2/5-5/7-7-7-\-2--2--5--5--5-5--0-------------|

I can't remember which of these parts comes next in
the song, but they are here any way :)

 There is a solo in here somewhere that I don't know
 sorry...Randy??

 Anyway..the part out of the solo is this:
 (very similar to the end part of Drown I
 might add!
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--7~~~~~~----\2~~~~---/5~~~-----\2~~~~--------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|


 Then this is repeated a fair few times.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--9\7/9-9-------------------------------------------|
|--9\7/9-9---7-8-9-10/12-----------------------------|
|--7\5/7-7---7-8-9-10/12-----------------------------|
|----------0-5-6-7--8/10--0--------------------------|

 Then the part that sounds like it is dying.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9---------|
|--9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9---------|
|--7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7---------|
|--7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7---------|


Then back to the fast sort of bit above.

Then goes to this bit a couple of times.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--------7b-(hold) r----------7b-r-------------------|
|--9--9-----------------9--9---------7-/-9~~~~~------|
|--9--9-----------------9--9-------------------------|
|--7--7-----------------7--7-------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|

This leads into the really SNAZZY bit.

With lots of palm muting.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|---7p5-----------------------6----------------------|
|--------7p6p5\3-3--0-3-5-6-7------------------------|

Then the above riff changes to this slower riff.
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|--------------7-9----------------------------------|
|--5--/7--/8-9-5-7----------------------------------|
|--3--/5--/6-7--------------------------------------|

Apart from the solo and some other lead parts that is
the whole song.

Corrections can most likely be made.
