It's a very typical Psyched up Janis song, and it's pretty easy to play. To play along with the record, you have to tune the guitars up two steps. ------------------------------ Intro Riff: B5 |-G-|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-| |-D-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5s7-7-7s4-4-4-4-4-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-| |-A-|---------------------------------|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-| play this 2 times, and then play this 2 times: B5 |-G-|-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0---0-0-0-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-| |-D-|-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5s7-7-7s9---4-4-4-|-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-| |-A-|---------------------------------|-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-| Then one guitars starts playing G5-B5 like in the verse, while another guitar repeats: |-B-|-----------3---| |-G-|---2-----------| |-D-|-5---5---4---4-| And a third guitar plays: |-G-|-4~-2--2s4~-4-5~--4-| |-D-|--------------------| When guitar 1 starts playing A5-C5-A5-C5, guitar 2 repeats: |-B-|-----------3---| |-G-|-4-5-4---------| |-D-|---------5---5-| G5 B5 G5 I remember when we drowned B5 G5 We'd never seen the ice B5 G5 And now I can only frown B5 A5 When I see it from this side C5 It's cold and we're shaking A5 C5 That's all we ever wanted to do Then the intro is played again.7 I remeber when we laughed We knew we'd stay for good And now I can only frown Cause I always knew we could It's cold and we're shaking That's all we ever wanted to do Then the intro is repeated. Guitar 2 plays it's part, and guitar 3 plays |-G-|-4~-------| Guitar 2 the blays a riff pretty much like it's usual: /-e-|-----------------| |-B-|-------------3---| |-G-|---0-2-0---------| |-D-|-----------4---4-| |-A-|---------2-------| \-E-|-3---------------| And guitar 3 plays: |-G-|-5~-5-4--2---2---2s5-5~-5-4-2----| |-D-|-----------5---5--------------5~-| And a really distorted guitar plays: /-e-|-3--5--3--2-3-2--|--3--5-7--5-3--2-3-2-| it keeps repeating the last part until it finishes the song with: |-G-|-7--5--4-4--5-4------4s7--7--5-4-----| |-D-|----------------7-5--------------7-5-| Looking over this tab, it seems just a bit messy, but listen to the record while you play it - it helps a lot. ------------------------------ If you have any questions, requests or corrections, please send them to me at farfignugen@hotmail.com.
