Playhouses

Tabbed by: In Effigy

Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)

Dave's strange recording techniques. I'm trying my best to translate what they
do on the record onto regular ol' electric guitar. They do it better than I do 
(if you've ever seen them live, you know what I'm talking about), so bare with 
me.

**************************************************************************
For this riff, just crank the distortion and play these notes as fast as *
you can.                                                                 *

  "so for whoooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO..."


**************************************************************************
For this riff, you play the same thing as Riff 1 , except you add in the *
B string on the same fret. Crank up the reverb and pick these really     *
fast to get the desired sound. I like to play them with my middle finger *
on the E and my ring finger on the B. Here's an example of the chords.   *

**************************************************************************
Note: These intro/interlude chords sound best if you pick them rapidly.  *
      Although, you could just strum them and let them sustain. Either   *
      way is fine, it's entirely up to you.                              *

E (00:00 - 00:05)

F#         E
F#                      E   
 Swept away by the river now
F#         E  
 Confounded
F#            
 Sound it out now


(No guitar 00:32 - 00:46)

Vodka cran in your hand 
and whose little girl are you now
Oh i'd ask for this dance 
but i know you'd play like you don't know how [RIFF 1 BEGIN]

What your coy smile exposes
A recent memory of when we shit our bed of roses

And i know the moon above is shining down
But not for our love
so for who?

[RIFF 2 BEGIN]

so for who?

[RIFF 3 BEGIN]

Beneath the cigarettes and sugar shit of alcohol breath
i can taste the ocean on your tounge
Remember when we sat on the sidewalk of your old block
Against the wall under the stars
Talking about love's meaning
Well, i wasn't dreaming

I meant every word 
Just didn't know your demons

[RIFF 2 BEGIN]
 
Do you know mine, babe?
Are we wasting time, babe?

[RIFF 2 END]

E

F#         E
F#          E
 Haunted by 
F#             E
 Broken spirits 
F#                     E
 Just trying to get high

[RIFF 3 BEGIN]

Well we chose the course but
The weather changed
and the river froze
And when it thawed it was running
Backwards and dry now
I suppose it's appropriate to cry now

Over wasted time
And naked lies
Still get wasted sometime

[RIFF 4]

End with feedback/bends/reverb on the F# chord described in Riff 3.
