Since I have a six, that is how I will tab it.

The main riff is slapped, and I was too lazy to put in which notes are slapped and which are popped. You should be able to figure that out anyway. There are alot of variations in the main riff that Les does. He slaps the open E string sometimes, I think. The Intro/Guitar solo riff is strummed and I marked notes where he strums down with a V and notes where he strums up with a ^. When he strums down he rests his hand on the strings mute them (listen to the song to hear what I'm talking about.) If I forgot anything, then oops. --Eric Browne (koa@yosemite.net) Main riff G---||---------x----------x-------x--------|| D---||*----------------------6h7-----------|| A---||*-----x-----5h7--x-------------5--5--|| E---||---7---------------------------------|| G---------x----------x-------x-------7--7-------|| D-----------------------6h7----------------9\---|| A------x-----5h7--x-------------5h7-------------|| E---7-------------------------------------------|| G---------x----------x-------x--------|| D-----------------------6h7-----------|| A------x-----5h7--x-------------5--5--|| E---7---------------------------------|| G---------------x----------x-------x-----||--------------------- D-----------------------------6h7-----9\*||--Repeat all of this- A---5--6--7--x-----5h7--x---------------*||------many times----- E----------------------------------------||--------------------- Intro/Guitar solo riff V ^ V ^ V ^ V ^ V ^ V ^ V ^ V ^ G---9--9--9--9--7--7--9--9--||--9--9--9--9--7--7--10--9--|| D---8--8--8--8--6--6--8--8--||--8--8--8--8--6--6--9---8--|| A---------------------------||---------------------------|| E---------------------------||---------------------------|| Verse riff G---12--12\11-----10/11--|| D---11--11-10-----9--10--|| A------------------------|| E------------------------|| -------------------------------------http://fly.to/primus------------------------------------ -------------------------------------brazilian PRIMUS page----------------------------------- -------------------------------------gbonna@starmedia.com------------------------------------
