SONIC YOUTH
dirty boots

bass tab by chris lawrence

the previous one seemed a little messed up, so here's my interpretation..

intro (after thurston's intro):

G-----------------------
D-----------------------
A--5\7-7-7--5\12--12-10- (long slides)
E-----------------------

verse:

G-----------------
D-----------------
A--14--17--12--10-
E-----------------

chorus:

G-----------------------------------------
D-----------------------------------------
A--7--7\5-5--\12--10----7--7\5--\12-14-10-
E-----------------------------------------

note between chorus & verse:

E---12---

during the outro jam (after 'got some dirty boots'), playing the intro
riff 8 times, then hang on a low E for a bit, mixed with the E at the
7th fret of the A string.

then:

A--16-16-16-16-17-17-17-17- X ? then hang on --7---
E-----------------------------------------------0---

then she plays:

A--19-19-- (listen for where she plays it, i kinda forget..)

then slide back to: A--10-10-10-10-10-10- etc when the main riff begins
again..

after all that dies down, it sounds like something, which may or may
not be a bass, is playing:

G---14\16-16---14/12-12-- etc etc ...

end on a G note.
