DOCTORS ORDERS
	(by Kim, Lee, Steve, and Thurston)

This song off of -Experimental Jet Set Trash and No Star- can be played
using a normal everyday guitar tuning.  Basically the verse riff is:

E ------------------|---------------------------|
B ------------------|---------------------------|
G ------------------|---------------------------|
D -9---5----7---3---|--------2------------2-----|
A -7---3----5---1---|---0-1--0--5----0-1--0--5--|
E ------------------|-3---------3--3---------3--|

The chorus are simply these power chords:

   C5      D#5     D5                C5      D#5     D5      A#5

E ---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
B ---------------------------------|---------------------------------|
G -5-5-5-5-8-8-8-8-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|-5-5-5-5-8-8-8-8-7-7-7-7---------|
D -5-5-5-5-8-8-8-8-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-|-5-5-5-5-8-8-8-8-7-7-7-7-8-8-8-8-|
A -3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5-|-3-3-3-3-6-6-6-6-5-5-5-5-8-8-8-8-|

The song basically continues on an A power chord with improvisational
(jazzy) things put on it and that is it.
