311 - "plain" Tablature

Official 311 Tablature & Sheet Music »



From: Blowfish <jjt@ecst.csuchico.edu>

Plain (311)
done plainly by jeff terrel

This starts out with an envelope filter or wah doing:

Am C B

over until [0:36] when it's:

G Am G Am G Am Bm G

and back. When distortion pops in ("nod your head to this...") repeat:

E F# G F#

then at [1:12] it does stuff with an Am, basically sliding or whatever.

at [2:36] it adds to the same riff thing a --0--0~2-- fill on the G
string (!)

For this riff you play an A5 power chord and slide down to and E5, then you
slide up the neck on the E string all the way to the pickups. Listen to the
song to get it right.
