Subject: TAB: Matte Kudasai by King Crimson
Matte Kudasai, by King Crimson, from _Discipline_. Also on various
compilation CDs and _The Acoustic Adrian Belew_.
The song is in implied E major. This is the arpeggiated rhythm part Fripp
plays behind Belew's improvised slide guitar solos and the lyrics. Listen
to the song to get how things fit together. I play it kind of like Adrian
on _The Acoustic Adrian Belew_. The song is in three time, and really
swings. If you're playing it on an acoustic, it should sound decent. If
you're playing it on an electric, use a _very_ light distortion (mostly for
warmth), light chorus/flange, a long delay, and compression. It will probably
sound OK on a plain clean guitar with some reverb, but I thought I'd give you
the full list! I recently saw Crimson live and verified my guesses, so I think
this is pretty close.
Intro:
[A verse with no words, Adrian solos in E major and its related modes with
a slide. He also puts lots of slide licks in when there are no words.]
Verse 1:
(Verse Riff)
Stare at the window pane,
(Verse Riff with alternate ending)
Stare at the rain that's falling.
Chorus:
(Chorus Riff 1a)
She waits in the air,
Chrous Riff 1b)
Matte Kudasai.
(Chorus Riff 1a)
She sleeps in a chair,
(Chrous Riff 1c)
(Chorus Riff 2a)
In her sad America.
(Chorus Riff 2b)
[no lyrics]
Verse 2:
[same as Verse 1]
Long, long is the night alone,
Long, like the notes I'm sending.

(Note: this fingering is really tough. I recommend doing stretching
exercises before attempting it. I recommend using a thumb fret for the
bass string, but if you can finger it some other way, go for it!)

NOTE: I forgot to indicate that you need to play each measure twice on
Chrous Riffs 1a and 1b. Please edit the file accordingly, replacing the
line titled "segue -> Chorus Riff 1a Chorus Riff 1b" in the original with
the lines below.
