Tabs

Dirty Boots
BY:sonic youth
from:mike abraham ([email protected])

I believe this is Thurston's part---(the intro and verse)

tuning key: u=tune up
          d=tune down

tuning:   E-dG-D-G-dE-dD   (thurston)

intro-
repeat about 4X

verse-
I'm not sure if the strumming is correct but here's my way......

|---------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4------------|
|---------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------|
here's one with more bass.Try the one that sounds better.......

|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4------------|
|---------------------------------------|

that's all i know or think i know..

later

BAND : Sonic Youth
ALBUM : Goo
SONG : Dirty Boots

The correct tunage is EEBBEF# for Lee
         and EGDGED  for Thurston
The following tab is in normal tunage (EADGBE) cause i didn't
want to loose all my strings!
Some parts missing so please send me comments and corrections
or evenmore the correct transcription as soon as possible.
