I Am Hydrogen
This song is usually preceded by Mike's Song
We've heard it all before: Listen to a recording for timing info. Figuring
out the notes they play is tough enough -- no point figuring out something
you can get the gist of if you listen to a recording.
I don't play Bass, but the Bass line is as such on a guitar:
|: :|
G-------------------------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------------------------
A--12---12------------11----11--------------------------------------------
E-----9----9--(7)--12----12----(12)---------------------------------------
A kind of nicer way to play the chords leading up to it (or the chords
in the background, if you're playing with another guitar) that I've
found is as such:
E A
E--0---0----
B--0---0----
G--4---6----
D--6---7----
A--7---4----
E--0---0----
Again, I don't think Trey uses those chords at all. But they sure sound
nice. The chords use the notes in the bassline.
