If I Think - Mudhoney, from the album Superfuzz Bigmuff

There clearly isnt enough Mudhoney material on here.  Im not sure if
this is absolutly correct (the 'notes' bits are very sus.), but it
sounds pretty close.  Superfuzz Bigmuff is by far their best album,
if anyone has tabbed any other stuff off of it, I'd sure like a copy.
You can mail it to me direct if you wish.

Song format

Intro
Verse 1
Chorus
Verse 2
Chorus

You relly need to listen to the record to appreciate just how its
played, but heres a rough guide.  The intro and verses are played
with very lazy strumming and no distortion.  The first two lines of
the chorus are also without distortion and played in the same lazy
fashion.  After playing 'Notes2', kick in the distortion for the rest
of the chorus and stum solidly.  After each line in the chorus there
is a slight pause prior to the next line.  The last E chord is played
w/out distortion and melts into the next verse.

After the last chorus the song goes into instrumental overdrive but I
havent gotted around to working out the chord progression for that
bit yet.

If anyone has any improvements to this I would like to here from you.
