By PHISH

Here's my complete version of all three songs, usually played

together at concerts in the order I will transcribe them. Thanks a

lot to kcjonz@wam.umd.edu for two of the three songs.. I uploaded the

chords to I Am Hydrogen, and saw the other two up there, and figured

I'd make it into one file entry. I play them together, because they

go together. Here they are:

^Verses start on this note

Trapped in time and I don't know what to do

These friends of mine, I can see them right through.

You don't gotta tell me and I don't gotta move

'Cause I'm sittin' back here sharin' the groove.

E|---------------------------------|--------------------7---8----|

[Trey] Me no are no nice guy [Mike] I-i-i...

[Paige]Me no are no nice guy

[same chords as earlier]

...walk through the hallways inside my mind

I chase the backbeat from behind

Big dude in the doorway was blockin' my way

He reached to grab me and this is what he said:

Me no are no nice guys (x3)

Then go stacatto between these two chord formations :

E|-------|

B|---9-7-|

G|---9-7-|

D|---9-7-|

A|-------|

E|-------|

Then back to the "me no are no nice guys" riff, then back to the

stacatto chords, then switch over to :

F#m7 --> B back and forth for a LONG time

D E F#m7 a couple of times, back to F#m7 --> B then

D E F#m7 twice, then the 12-tone chromatic walkdown from F#-& to

|F#m7 A E F :| repeaded 8 times, stopping on the E and letting it

ring on the last time.

===================

===================

Background alternating between E and A chords.

After a few bars of alternating between the chords F

and B ...

E------9---------9-7--------7-----------------------

B---------------------10--9----10--9-7--------------

G---9--------9----------------------------9---------

D---------------------------------------------------

A---------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------

E------9---------9-7------------------

B---------------------10--9-----------

G------------9----------------9-------

D-------------------------------------

A-------------------------------------

E-------------------------------------

The above repeats a couple of times before going onto

this:

E----(7)-9-----7--9-12-----9-12-14----12-14-13------

B---------------------------------------------------

G---9-----------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------

A---------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------

E--14-16-17----16-17-19-17-16-12--------------------

B---------------------------------------------------

G---------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------

A---------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------

Then back to the first part a couple more times

After that, it goes something like this :

E----(7)--9----7--9-7--------9---------9-12-11-12---

B---------------------10--9---------9---------------

G--9------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------

A---------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------

E-14-12-11--9-12-11--9------------------------------

B----------------------12---------------------------

G---------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------

A---------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------

Then comes a bunch of ascending scales alternating

between Paige and Trey, but I couldn't get those down.

After that, hit an E chord and let it ring into Weekapaug...
