ISLAND IN THE SUN
Weezer
The Green Album
Transcribed by James Delos Reyes (Ensomniac3@aol.com)

This is a correction to the one i previously posted up. I kinda rushed
the last one and it was noted to me that the first riff was on the
wrong strings, also that the lyrics were slightly off, and other minor
corrections. I also saw Rivers playing on SNL and noticed that he plays
the A power chord as an open chord and the solo over one string.
Personally, i didn't wanna redo the solo, etc., since there all the
same notes. If you really want to play it exactly the way he does then
just transcribe the notes yourself to the d string. But i'd really
rather play my version since you stay in one position and it still is
the same notes.
