Face Pollution
Tuning - DADGBE  

I don't know much of this song except that it is hard to figure out.
Pentatonic scales in this song are great though.

Intro:
|-0-0-0-0-0--0-0--0-000-00--|-0-000-00-0-00-0--0-0-0--0-|
|-5-5-5-5-5--5-5--5-555-55--|-5-555-55-5-55-5--5-5-0--0-|
|---------------------------|---------------------------|
|---------------------------|---------------------------|  
|---------------------------|---------------------------|
|---------------------------|---------------------------|

Verse: (Gtr. 1)
|---------------------------|---------------------------|
|---------------------------|---------------------------|
|---------------------------|---------------------------|
|--7-7-7-6--5--5-6p5-6p5-0--|--7-7-7-6--5--5-5-5-5-5-0--|
|--7-7-7-6--5--5-6p5-6p5-0--|--7-7-7-6--5--5-5-5-5-5-0--|
|--7-7-7-6--5--5-6p5-6p5-0--|--7-7-7-6--5--5-6p5-6p5-0--| 
*Play around with the G5 chord.

Verse: (Gtr. 2)
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|---6----5--4~~~-----------|---6----5--4~~~-----------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|


Chorus: (I dont feel like feelin')
|--------------------|--------------------|
|--------------------|--------------------|
|--------------------|--------------------|
|--12---15p12-15p12--|--12---15p12-15p12--|
|--12---15p12-15p12--|--12---15p12-15p12--|
|--12---15p12-15p12--|--12---15p12-15p12--|

For the break just play the intro part once and conclude it with some
scaling like below...

Here's some scaling:
|----------------5-7-5-|---------------------------------------|
|--7-5-------5-7-------|--7-5---5-7-----------5-7--------------|
|------7-5-7-----------|------7-----7-5-----7-----7--5~~~------|
|----------------------|----------------7-5--------------------|
|----------------------|---------------------------------------|
|----------------------|---------------------------------------|

Of course it's mostly adlib....I can't figure the whole thing out. I could
do it but it would take a while.

Face pollution! part: 5/4 time
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|--------------------------|--------------------------|
|-------------0--10-12-10--|-------------0--10-12-10--|
|-------------0--10-12-10--|-------------0--10-12-10--|
|-12\-12\-12\-0--10-12-10--|-12\-12\-12\-0--10-12-10--|

I'm not sure about the first 3 notes but it sounds good.

End it by playing the verse riff 4 1/2 times and sliding down from 12th fret.

FACE POLLUTION 

I can count it on my fingers
I've got all my reasons not to feel
I'm numb as rigor mortis
Scared by monkey faces
Drowned in shark fins

But I don't feel like feeling
Feeling like you

Now I'm in the mirror
Now it's getting clear
I fear that I'm in you
Now I'm into plastics
Now I've made a mask
It looks like fish heads

But I don't feel like feeling
Feeling like you

Face pollution
Face pollution
Face pollution
Face pollution
