Chords

Tabbed by: Jon Martin Introduction: These are the chord shapes -- listen to a recording for timing and strumming information.
                        D     D    A    D
       H-O   H-O
E------------------------------------|
B-------------------10---7---5-------|
G---------------7---7----7---6---7---|
D----------7-9------7----7---7---7---|
A-----7-9------------------------9---|
E--10--------------------------------|
Repeat as necessary for intro. Then A D (x4) Then repeat Introductory sequence... Back to A D, until this part (again, listen to a recording for timing information and when it comes:
E-----------------------|
B--10--9--10--9--10--9--|
G---7--7---7--7---7--7--|
D---7--7---7--7---7--7--|
A-----------------------|
E-----------------------| then noodle on D...

E------------------------|
B--10--9--10--11--10--9--|
G---7--7---7--12---7--7--|
D---7--7---7--13---7--7--|
A------------------------|
E------------------------|
Repeat twice... Then back to the main lick, then A > D, the last time ending with a D chord on the second fret (basic D chord). Then comes the distortion, and the progression changes to a D C D C G > F one (See below)... listen to the recording for timing. This is the solo Trey does on Lawn Boy.. every time I think he noodles around with it a little.

..Into the JAM!! Em > D
Here's a little lick that Trey did at Shoreline in 1995 at the start:
(Thanks to Mike Flouton)
E--------------------------------------------------------|
B-12h13-11h12------10------------------------------------|
G-------------9h11----12-11-10-9-8-7-----7-9-------------|
D------------------------------------8h9-----9p8p7-------|
A--------------------------------------------------9p8p7-|
E--------------------------------------------------------|
After the Climax of the jam, it cools down but maintains the same Em > D progression. Trey might noodle over it a little, then goes into the words : Rai rai Rocko (?) Marco Esquandolas (?) Been you to have any spice/spike mon? (?) A heavy C chord makes for the transition to the next part: D C D C G > F (loud!) I like to play the G > F chords as such:
      G     F
E--------------|
B-----8-----6--|
G-----7-----5--|
D-----9-----7--|
A----10-----8--|
E--------------|
Though I'm sure most people will stick with the barre chord shapes. For this part, I can't decide which one sounds better / works better - the C chord or the Am or the Am7 chord. They're all very closely related, Am being the sixth of C. Play it however you like, I suppose D / Am7 Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run/Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run D / Am7 Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run/Run Run Run Run Run Run Run Run (with "Run run run" chant over) "Set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul . . . you've got to run like an antelope . . . out of control..." Eventually they slow this chord progression down, ending on the D chord.
Trey will sometimes bend the fifth fret on the B string up a whole step
and hold it while the band does their grand finale, and he sometimes does his
"Thanks a lot, we'll be back in fifteen minutes" routine (yeah, right).
