Now it comes to a more silent part in the song. There is a strange sound in
it that you can reproduce with a wah pedal. Just rock it back and forth and
play this:
E-----------------
B-----------------
G----------------- Repeat 6 times. Then....
D---5---5---------
A---5---5---------
D---5---5---------
E----------------------------------------------------------------
B----------------------------------------------------------------
G---------------------------------------------------------------- Repeat
once. Then...
D---3--5--5--3--5--5--5--5--3--5--5--3--5--5--5--5---
A---3--5--5--3--5--5--5--5--3--5--5--3--5--5--5--5---
D---3--5--5--3--5--5--5--5--3--5--5--3--5--5--5--5---
----------------------------------
Play Chorus Twice Then..........
----------------------------------
OUTRO

G------------------------
D---5-5-x-x-x-x------ Repeat 6 times. Then....
A---5-5-x-x-x-x------
D---5-5-x-x-x-x------

There it is for all you Union Underground fans!
Note: For the closest distortion sound to the album's, I recommend the Zoom
GFX Processor. It's a great pedal that runs for a few hundred dollars, but if
you play in a band or write your own music, it's definetly worth it. Peace
out!
