This is tabbed from the live version played in TKOL From the Basement
from Start until 0:16 or so, Listen to Thom's guitar to come in then change to
G|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------14---12---------------14---12---------------------------| A|-----------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0-----------------------0----------------------------------------|
Listen to Thom's guitar to come in then changes to:
G|----------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------12--h14--12-------------12--h14--12--------------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0---------------------------0-----------------------------------------|
Pause a couple bars as soon as Thom's vocal first comes in, you can play improv like this:
G|----------------------------------------------------------| D|------------12-12-----------------12-12-------------------| A|----------------------------------------------------------| D|------0-------------0---------0-------------0-------------| Then back to G|---------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------12--h14--12-------------12--h14--12-------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0---------------------------0----------------------------------|
As soon as chorus comes play these in whichever octave you want, I added a couple extra
notes and slides here and there:
G|------------------------------------------------------| D|------------------------------------------------------| A|------------------------------------------------------| D|--0-0----8-8----10-10----10-10-12---------------------| play that 3 times
ends with:
G|--------------------------------------------------| D|--------------------------------------------------| A|--------------------------------------------------| D|--8-8----8-8----10-10----12--14--12---------------|
Play those in the higher octave on the high D string is you want.
Soon as vocals end with "OhOh OhOh OhOh Ohhhooooohhh" back to
G|---------------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------12--h14--12-------------12--h14--12-------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0---------------------------0----------------------------------|
I think you can figure it out from here, rinse and repeat.
Around 3:30 the bass goes back to the beginning rifs until the songs ends:
G|---------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------14---12---------------14---12-------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0-----------------------0--------------------------------|
Some variations for this part: (Colin's been playing these for the live shows since RH
appeared on the Colbert report):
G|---------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------14---12---------------12---10-------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0-----------------------0--------------------------------| G|---------------------------------------------------------------| D|---------------14---12---------------10---12-------------------| A|---------------------------------------------------------------| D|------0-----------------------0--------------------------------|
That's it enjoy.
