Lyrics:

Winded is the sailor...drifting by the storm...
Wounded is the open knee left, oh...bloodied on the shore...
Claudius was your savior, Ceaser...drowning in his wake...
I barely taste the salt of her tears born...I just blamed fate...

Little secrets, tremors...turn to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...

Ransom paid the Devil...He wispers faith and words...
Triumphant are the angels if they can get there first...

Little secrets tremors...turn to quake...
The smallest oceans still get...big, big waves...

I'll decide...take my time...
Take my time...not my life...
Wait for signs...believe in lies...
To get by...this is mine...
Oh, you know what it's like...

Turns the bow back towards him...drops the line...
Put his faith and love in Tremor Christ...

A few notes about this song. This tab seems to be almost 100% correct,
although it was done in a rather hurry. The few feedback notes that Mike
McCready/Stone Gossard use in this song have not been tabbed out, as well
as some of the wah stuff at the end (mostly chords with wah effects.) Any
quesitons/comments/suggestions can be sent to stevem@imap1.asu.edu.
Thanks!

Intro


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--12--11--11--11--11--11--11--11--11-----------
--11--11--11--11--11--11--11--11--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10-----------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------


Continue with this pattern


Riff A


-----------
-12h13--12- this little riff is thrown in the intro under the intro chords
-----------
-----------
-----------
-----------


Verse Notes - real easy, just a hammer-on pattern which varies with bends
and stop-notes at different times (note: this is DEFINITELY
not in time, so listen to the album and figure out their
position on your own



Song: Little secrets, tremor......


---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
--9h11~~~~--10-------9h11~~~~~~------9h11~~~~--10---------9h11~~~~~~~------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
---------------------------------------------------------------------------



bend and shake the note one full step up
--------------------------------------
--------------------------------------
--------------------------------------
--9h11~~~~~~-------9h11~~~^(12)------- and on... (you get the idea)
-------------------------------------
--------------------------------------




Arpeggio


--------------------------------------------------
-------8-------8-----8-------7------7----7--------
-----8-------8-------------7------7---------------
---7-------7------7------6------6-----6----------- and on...
--------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------





At about 2:00, the guitars go back to the original intro chords, except this
time they leave out one of the notes to get something like this:




slightly palm mute...

--------------
--------------
--------------
--11---------- x 8 times
--------------
--------------


--------------
--------------
--------------
--10---------- x 8 times
--------------
--------------



Just finish the song out as needed with the above. One note about the 'solo':
the solo is identical to the played arpeggio as noted above, but you will
want to slide up to the first note of the arpeggio and bend the last note
played.
