C'MON
FROM SOUNDS OF TURNIPS
Transcribed by Adam Morris
This has got to be the most UNpumpkinesque
song I have heard by SP, but it is a GREAT
song. Very STPish I reckon.
Standard Tuning
INTRO is is a relatively slow slide down from
the 12th fret on the low E-string
Main Riff (Played with strong palm muting later)
|---------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------------|
|--------------------------------*------------------------|
|-0--0-0--7--10~~--0-7-10~--0--0-0-7h10-6~~-0-0-0-53-----|
Replace this 0 with a 6 each 2nd time played.
CHORUS
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|-4--4--4/7-7/9-9-9--4--4--7--7--7-7----------------|
|-4--4--4/7-7/9-9-9--4--4--7--7--7-7----------------|
|-2--2--2/5-5/7-7-7--2--2--5--5--5-5--0-------------|
I can't remember which of these parts comes next in
the song, but they are here any way :)
There is a solo in here somewhere that I don't know
sorry...Randy??
Anyway..the part out of the solo is this:
(very similar to the end part of Drown I
might add!
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--7~~~~~~----2~~~~---/5~~~-----2~~~~--------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
Then this is repeated a fair few times.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--97/9-9-------------------------------------------|
|--97/9-9---7-8-9-10/12-----------------------------|
|--75/7-7---7-8-9-10/12-----------------------------|
|----------0-5-6-7--8/10--0--------------------------|
Then the part that sounds like it is dying.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9---------|
|--9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9---------|
|--7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7---------|
|--7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7---------|
Then back to the fast sort of bit above.
Then goes to this bit a couple of times.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|--------7b-(hold) r----------7b-r-------------------|
|--9--9-----------------9--9---------7-/-9~~~~~------|
|--9--9-----------------9--9-------------------------|
|--7--7-----------------7--7-------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
This leads into the really SNAZZY bit.
With lots of palm muting.
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------------|
|---7p5-----------------------6----------------------|
|--------7p6p53-3--0-3-5-6-7------------------------|
Then the above riff changes to this slower riff.
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|---------------------------------------------------|
|--------------7-9----------------------------------|
|--5--/7--/8-9-5-7----------------------------------|
|--3--/5--/6-7--------------------------------------|
Apart from the solo and some other lead parts that is
the whole song.
Corrections can most likely be made.
