Dinosaur Jr
Get Me, off Where You Been
This is different from, and hopefully improved upon the one at Nevada
G(strum) F#/G(strum) C(strum) D (see below)
Bm(strum) C
I don't see you, I won't call you. I don't know enough to stall you. Is it me
(below Am(below) C(strum) D(strum)
or is it all you? Guess it's on and on.
/=slide
p=pull off
In other words: (to save space, I'm scrrewing rhythym here. If you listen
to the song it should be clear).

G F#/G C D Bm C Am C D
(for D just slide the C to the 5th fret)
Hopefully, that is legible.
That's the verse. The part with the heavy distortion after the first
verse just goes G, D, G, C (while strumming C, alternate 2nd string 1st
fret on and off to get that sound J does).
Then more verse, that little solo is over the verse, too.
The chorus goes:
e--3-----3p1p0---3----
B--5-------------5---- do this over and over ("Not gonna get me thru this...")
G--5-------------5----
Don't play top strings.
or you can play it like this (which I think is easier)
e-3--3-----3--------
B-5---6-5--5--------
G-5--------5--------
hit the 6th fret B string with your pinky.
The solo is over the chorus part.
Any questions, comments, corrections,etc. welcome at ajl694@nwu.edu
