Whale & Wasp

Well, it's been a while since I've 
posted anything to the archive, and 
I
noticed this song wasn't there, so 
I'll give it my best shot.  As with
all Alice-in-Chains songs, you must 
tune down 1/2 step to play this
song.  Note:  I was too lazy to tune
 down 1/2 step, so parts of this
(especially Rhy. Fig. 2) aren't 
totally accurate, but the bass 
(root)
notes are definitely correct.  Here 
goes:

Rhy. Fig. 1

Gtr. II
Eb---B----slow rel|---------------
Bb-10-(11)--------|(8)------------

Db----------------|---------------
Ab----------------|---------------
Eb----------------|---------------

Continues after the ad
The (8) is a ghost note.  As you're 
releasing the bend on the 10, lift
up your finger so that the 8 sounds.
  In a way it's a VERY gentle
pull-off.  You can also pick it 
softly if you want, I guess.

B|-|--3-----3------|3-----------3--| 
G|-|5-----4-----5--|2-------------2| 
D|-|---------------|0--------------|

E|-|---------------|---------------| 

The 232 thing is just a triplet, and
 I wanted to stick to the pattern of
two dashes per eighth note.

Now for the structure of the song:

Rhy. Fig. 1  4x
Rhy. Fig. 2  2x
Rhy. Fig. 1  2x
Rhy. Fig. 3  4x
Rhy. Fig. 4  4x
Rhy. Fig. 1  2x

That's the whole song.  No lyrics, 
of course.  I love posting
instrumentals.  :)  Comments,
