The bass carries the outro; the guitars
mess around with F# (seperating it into
different parts like in [Fig. 15]. The
second guitar replicates the bassline at

This does not include
[Fig. 2 cont.]
There's a lead-guitar line in G major on the high E
string that I couldn't possibly tab -- the effects
used make it difficult to distinguish between the
notes... just remember it's in G Major, work out the
effects used and keep an ear out for the rhythm.

11. Doris Tailspin (Boring Mountain)
Every album should have an
obligatory "Woohoo!" point.
There's really no point trying to tab what's going
on there ... just play whatever you want over these
chords.
Jam:
G, Bm, A,
G, Bm, D x 3
G, Bm, A x 2
D
G, A, D x 5
Fade out.
