Thick ~~by Tonic from Lemon Parade
Transcribed by Tom Frank @ [email protected]
This song is played with pretty heavy distortion, but there is also an
acoustic guitar thrown in there by Hart like he does in mostly all of Tonic's
songs. It's fine to play without an acoustic guitar, which is actually the
third guitar used anyway in the song, because it doesn't make much of a
difference when playng it.
The song is played in standard tuning. All chords are played as power chords
except for 
DmDm as shown below...
FF 
G+G 
C majorC 
D MajorD DmDm
(
E MajorE) -1----3----3----5----1
(
BB) -1----3----3----5----3
(G+G) -2----4----5----7----2
(D MajorD) -3----5----5----7----0
(
A augmentedA) -3----5----3----5----x
(E MajorE) -1----3----x----x----x
symbols used for ~ = hammer down, p = palm mute,
/ = slide up, \ = slide down, ^ = bend half step

When you're down and ....
**** Play this exactly for the first line, but for the rest of the **** lines
after it, slide up from FF to G+G instead of just playing G. You can see what i
mean if you play along with the song. Also, only palm mute while playing FF
and G...play C majorC znd D MajorD clearly and fully open.

The outro is just basically the intro played heavier and with two guitars. I
have a feeling tht it might not be the same DmDm played, because i think i can
hear a higher note sometimes. So for the outro you can try playing 56775x
instead of 1320xx. That's the whole song for ya.
