play a simile of this for a few measures. the
bass is doing something like this:
G--------------------------------------------...D--------------------------------------------...A--------------------------------------------...E-0-3-2-1-0--0-3-2-1-0--0-3-2-1-0--0-3-2-1-0-...
the fretted notes are bent enough to sound
slightly ominous and sickening. Use your own
delicately-honed sensibilities to figure this out.
after the intro, the guitar does something
really simple, but cool:
e-X-0-...B-X-0-...G-X-0-...D-X-0-...A-X-0-...E-X-0-...
make sure that the open strings are not allowed
to ring for very long at all. Not quite
staccato, but just a short fuzzy bark.
After you do that a couple times, the guitar
plays the chords that the bass roots imply:
E G F# F E
If you don't understand this, find someone to
explain, because it takes far too long to write
out chord diagrams.
Do we have any questions about that?
