	        This is Hoi Polloi's _BOAT_ I think 
The riff 1 is E5 F#5 G5 then A5 in a Teen Spirit (Nirvana) rythm twice     
(heavy distortion) 
This fig. is doulbled by the bass playing E F# G A in eighth notes         
(light dist.) 
 
e|______________|________________|_______________|_____________________| 
b|_________5____|_________3______|__________0____|__________5_3_5_3_5_3|

d|______________|________________|_______________|_____________________|

e|______________|________________|_______________|_____________________| 
 
 play riff 1 twice then repeat the above fig. 1 
Then its C5 G5(10th fret a string) 3 times then Ab5 a measure        <--(riff 2) 
then its C5 G5 3 times again then B5 a measure then back to fig. 1 
riff 1 once then C5 Bb5 and G5 ending first with Ab5 then with B5    <--(riff 3) 
its back to riff 1 for the bass and rythm guitar while the lead plays this 
 
e|__12__14__16_______|___12__14__16_____|___12__14__16_______|_ 
b|______________12___|_______________14_|______________12____|_ 
g|___________________|__________________|____________________|_ 
d|___________________|__________________|____________________|_ 
a|___________________|__________________|____________________|_ 
e|___________________|__________________|____________________|_ 
 
hold the last note for as long as posible and bend it and make pick scraps and 
noise also it sounds good with a flanger at a high speed low width setting 
then its back to fig. 1 then riff 2 then one guitar plays riff 2 while the other 
guitar and bass play riff 3then its the solo again  with the exception  of the  
measure where you do the 12 14 16 part with 14 on the b string  
the song then ends on three beats of E5 and the lead on the 14th with reverb so  
the sudden cut echoes and has more effect
