The Island Come And See Intro

Decemberists

Text File

My guitar teacher figured this thing out for me just listening to the song a few times. 
recorded the album at his studio so he should know. He's on the special thanks, look it 
His name is Tim Ellis. Anyway enough bragging.

The opening riff is

e-------------------|
b-------------------|
g-----0-------------|
d-2-0---2-0-2-------|
a-------------1-0---|
E-----------------3-|

you can do it in power chords to make it sound more badass if you want.

Then it cuts to

e-2--0--2--0--2--|
b-2--2--2--2--4--|
g-2--2--2--2--4--|
d-4--2--4--2--4--|
a-4--0--4--0--2--|
E-2-----2--------|

for those of you that read chords names that's:

F#m A F#m A B

and then the alternating notes (not guitar) are

e-----------------------------------------------|
b-----------------------------------------------|
g-7/9/7/9/7/9/7/9/7/9/7-------------------------|
d-----------------------7/8/7/8/7/8/7/8/7/8/5---|
a-----------------------------------------------|
E-----------------------------------------------|

and finally the two notes for come and see are

g---4/7---
