TAB LEGEND:
/ = slide p = pulloff h = hammer * = palm mute
( ) = ghost note
Standard Tuning (EADGBE) although they sometimes play it live
tuned down a half step.
I find the easiest way to learn this song is to break the instrumental parts into
themes. All the instrumental parts leading up to the first verse can be broken
into four themes. I havn’t included the actual solo, because when I play this song
I improvise. It’s more fun and less frustrating that way for me. So figure it out
yourself if you want to know it.
This song also contains several ghost notes (a.k.a tied notes) which are to be
held for the value of an equal single note (where there is no way to indicate
timing in this).

E ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pulling the pavement from under my nails,
I brush past a garden, dependant on whales
The sloping companion I cast down the ash
Yanked on my tunic and dangled my stash
Zippping through the forest with the curdling fleas
To grow with them spindles, the mutant I sieze
I capture the dread beast who falls to his knees,
And cries to his cohorts, asleep in the trees..
(2:02) REPEAT UNTIL 2:20
