Subject: Correction: TAB to "Surround" by dada

hi. i sent this in yesterday, but i made the mistake of saying that there
should be a capo on the first fret, when in fact my guitar was tuned down a
half step when i tabbed it. i edited the note about the capo out of the
file, and am re-submitting the correct version. if possible, could you
simply replace the old file with the corrected version? thanks.

Intro:

Riff 1 (x4)


Verse: (play Riff 2 over the verses)

There's a picture on my wall
A crack in the ceiling
Cigarette burns in my hall
I get the feeling

Chorus:
A(9) Riff 1
That you... surround me
A(9) Riff 1
That you... surround me

play Riff 2 twice then
Verse:
If I died a thousand times
My soul washed beside me
I will never be alone
You're always inside me

Chorus:
A(9) Riff 1
And you... surround me
A(9) Riff 1
And you... surround me

Chords under the solo:

E D(9) riff C A(9)
E D(9) riff C A(9)
E D(9) riff C A(9)
E D(9) riff C*

the "D(9) riff" denotes the fact that the fourth strum of the D(9)
is actually a D(4). If you listen to the recording carefully,
you can hear it.

the solo itself is very easy, done with a slide:

G ---3/9---3/9---3/9---3/9---11--12-------

Chorus:
A(9) Riff 1
You... surround me
A(9) Riff 1
And you... surround me
etc.

As the chorus is repeated over and over at the end, the repeating portion
A(9) Riff 1

is gradually replaced by the chords
A(9) C D(9)

Chords:
-------
A(9) 002200
E 022100
D(9) xx023x
D(4) xx0233
C x32010
C* x32013
