Ok, here is some more Helmet tab. All timing is VERY approximated. Listen

to the song and follow along on the tab before you play it, because as

you know, proper rhythm and timing are everything with Helmet. Let's face

it--the music isn't that complicated. Guess that's why I'm able to

transcribe it. ;)

Anyway, crank the distortion and have fun.

Play INTRO, then VERSE RIFF A, then B, then repeat A and B and go to

CHORUS A. Play CHORUS A twice. Go back to VERSE RIFFS A and B, then

go to CHORUS B. Play CHORUS B four times. Go back to VERSE RIFFS A

and B. Play A and B twice. Go back to CHORUS B, play four times.

Play PART WITH NO WORDS (what should I have called it, anyway?).

Then play BRIDGE, and go to CHORUS B. Keep repeating CHORUS B

all the way thru the solo, which you can figure out yourself if you

really have the urge. Towards the end of the solo, play BRIDGE over

and over till end of song. Yay, you're done!
