_Notes:_ This is a >very< different version of the
song from the
one that appears on Ladies and Gentlemen We Are
Floating In Space,
and as such it is played >quite< differently. Here the
rhythm guitar
is quite prominent, and the chording is slightly more
complex (includes
one extra chord and a different solo). It is also
harsher and more
aggressive than the LAGWAFIS version, and is closer in
spirit to the
live version on Royal Albert Hall Live. Both of those
other versions
are arguably better, but this is the easiest to play.
Even though it
is the lesser of the three, it is still a spectacular
recording.

There is a fine transcription (by Sam Wander)
available in the old
Floating In Space
version, but that version unfortunately names the
chords incorrectly
so it can be confusing. As this is a different version
with a different
set of chords and solos, a new transcription was in
order.

_Effects:_ Distortion. Later in the song Jason uses
what sounds like
a phaser for that shifting, uneasy bit. Regardless
this song probably
benefits more from the Spacemen 3 trick of
over-amplification.

_Tuning:_ This song is played in standard tuning.
(EADGBe), but you
may or may not want to tune it down a bit (the rumor
that this is tuned
down seems to unsubstantiated).

Define chords:

A augmentedA - 002220 or XX222X or 577655
A#A# - XX333X or 688766
BB - XX444X or 799877
C majorC - XX555X or 8,10,10,9,8,8

>>I STRONGLY recommend that you play this with ONLY
the D,G, and BB stringsmay< be in a different key.

guitar tabs section where things like this are
exchanged but as this is a Spacemen 3 tab it does not
fit...
