Primus - Over the Electric Grapevine

Tabbed by Nathan Welton. *



Q above the tab stands for quadruplets
/ is a slide
o is a pull off
s is a slap
p is a pop
/\ above the tab is a strum

This is most of it... There are a whole bunch of little interludes and
incidentals here and there, but this is pretty complete.

Intro solo :

I think the intro goes:

C--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
G-----------------------------2-444-5-7-5-454-2----------------------------------
D--------------0---^3-2-4--------------------------4---------4-------------------
A-0h-2---0-2---2-------------------------------------`5-5-5---0-0h-2-2-----------
E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
B------------------------------------------------------------------------------0-

If you don't have a B tune E to B.

Primus - Over the Electric Grapevine

I hope this is the right place to send this, because I'd like to
submit the following suggestion as a variation on Nathan Welton's tab
take on "Over the Electric Grape Vine".  I play it on a fretless four
sting (a fretless is a must for this tune, I think).  The intro tab
seem right on, though, and I'd like to extend my kudos to Nathan for
nailing it.  When I play it live, I slow down a few bits and add more
of the notes that give it that sitar feel and the crowd seems to dig
it.

Anyway, here are the adjustments that I suggest; hope they don't suck too
much:

Verse :      /\              /\               /\              /\
|------------14-|------------15-|-------------16-|------------18-|
|------------14-|------------14-|-------------16-|------------18-|
|---------15----|----15---15----|----15---15-----|----15---15----|
|---------------|---------------|----------------|---------------|


Chorus :
   (triplets all)
|-----------------|
|-----------------|
|---*-*-*---------|
|---------5-5-5-5-|

* = Harmonic (albeit a vague one) between the 4th and 5th frets.
