   Sinkemlow, words and music by Clutch

   Tablature by Keith S. Byers

    This track features a nice bluesy Hendrix/Clapton lick in the key of F# pentatonic
  minor.  The lick is hooky and gives way to serious riffing, never quite straying
  from the tonal center of F# minor.  As with a lot of the new Clutch songs from "Pure
  Rock Fury," a good fuzzy tone can be achieved by flipping the pickup switch to the neck
  position.

  The solo is just some tremolo picked stuff around the fourteenth fret
 in the key of F# minor.  Not too hard
