Gradually let off the palm mute
Well, that's it except for the pauses and the solo. I usually play
the
Minor Pentatonic scale on the second fret (F#m), and I think (keyword:

the bass does this:
A----5-----5-----------------------------------------------
E--3---3-3---3-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-----------------------------
And that's it! Have phun

and here are the words:
POLITICAL SONG FOR MICHAEL JACKSON TO SING
list monitors arrive with(out) petition
iron fisted philosophy
is your life worth a painting
is this girl versus boy with different symbols
being born is power
scout leader/nazi tagged as big sin
"your risk chains me hostage me
me i'm fighting with my head
am not ambiguous"
i must have looked like a dork
me naked with text book poems
spout fountain against the nazis
with a weird kind of sex symbol
for sex in speeches that are big dance thumps
if we heard mortar shells
we'd cuss more in our songs
and cut down on the guitar solos
so dig this big crux:
organize the boy scouts for murder is wrong
ten years behind the big sweat point
man, it was still there
ever without you
coming back around
look
the coming together for just a second
a peek
a guess
at the wholeness that's way too big
at the wholeness that's way too big!
