                                                 * see note

* NB: The bends in the intro and main riff are microtonal, so bend half-way
(ish) between frets 3 and 4.



VERSE
Basically open chords (AGCA) with the odd fill, fleshed out with some organ
stuff.

|-0--|---3--|---0--|--------|
|-2--|---0--|---1--|-2------|
|-2--|---0--|---0--|-2------|
|-2--|---0--|---2--|-2------|
|-0--|---2--|-0h3--|-0------|
|----|-0h3--|------|----3(b)|
  A    G    C        A


A fill that comes up occasionally on the last bar is...

-------------|
-2-h-3-p-2---|
-2~----------|
-2~----------|
-0~----------|
-------------|

... or variations on that.


Just before it flips out there is a little fill which is a reverse-rake
(from
the treble strings to the bass strings) on a harmonic on fret 3.8-ish (i.e.
just
behind 4th fret).



THE FLIP OUT
The crazy sustained note itself is:

-----------
-10~~~~~~~-
-----------
-----------
-----------
-----------

and occasionally (for dissonance value)

-------------
-10~~~~~~~~--
-13~~~~~~~~~-
-------------
-------------
-------------

Obviously, some sustain device (e-bow or pedal) or feedback is required to
make
this hold for long enough. There is also some more octave pedal stuff
happening.



SOLO
Some crazy octave pedal things here, but the main melody is...

(A G.... then...)

||--------------|------------------|-----------------|--------------------|

  C            A   (G)            A                 G    (slide up + down
neck)

*2 : The first of a few nice little organ fills comes here. It can be played
with harmonics something like:

-------------------------------
-------------------------------
------------ 12>---------------
------ 12>------- 12>----------
--- 12>--------------- 12>-----
-*********---------------------
  (rake)



BRIDGE

|------------|------------|------------|-------------|
|-7--7--7--7-|-7--7--7--7-|-5--5-------|-------------|
|-7--7--7--7-|-7--7--7--7-|-5--5--6--6-|-6--6--6-----|
|-7--7--7--7-|-7--7--7--7-|-5--5--5--5-|-7--7--7--*3-|
|-5--5--5--5-|-5--5--5--5-|-3--3--5--5-|-7--7--7-----|
|------------|------------|-------3--3-|-5--5--5-----|
  D                         C     G      A


*3: Another organ fill is (I think) a G7 chord, try sliding down from:

------
----\-
-10-\-
-12-\-
-10-\-
------


Then it's back to the main riff. There is some more A pentatonic
improvisation
over this bit with more octave pedal stuff.

Also, there is another organ fill after the G chords...

----9--
/10----
-------
-------
-------
-------

...but I think it sounds better an played octave down:

------
------
---5--
/7----
------
------



Outro with verse chords, then the main riff. Fade.

End!
