"Gift" by Sugar, from the album F.U.E.L.

Transcribed by Daniel Meijer <dmeijer@zeta.org.au>

The main chord riff....ie the intro...is sus2 chords:
Bsus2 Dsus2
E---2------------5-----------
B--2-2-2-2------5-5-5-5------
G--4-------4----7-------7-----
D--4------------7-------------
A--2------------5------------
E--x-------------x-----------

Hold the chord while you play the little line on the 2nd & 3rd string. So in the verse, when I say "Bsus2" I mean the riff above.

-----A>>>B--- means bend note A to the pitch of B.

Lead Break:

F#5 D5 A5 E5 D5
e---------------------5>>>7--------------------
B-----------------------------5>>>>7-----------
G--4>>>>6-----7>>>>9-------------------7>>>>9---
