Tab: "When we Recovered," Toad the Wet Sprocket
Transcribed by Michael A. Mazur (mmazur@wpi.edu)
I'm fairly sure of Glen's part (guitar 1), but guitar 2 is driving me crazy... I'm not
of the tuning, I'm not sure even if he's playing with a slide or not... I can't tell...
Intro: Guitar 1 plays this twice

Guitar 2 enters at the point marked with an asterisk, with delay,
heavy reverb, and volume swells.
Throughout the song, except for the choruses, it sounds like guitar 2
is also played with a slide.

Verse: (both guitars play the same as the first verse)
i slip sometimes
i can be cruel
i can say stupid things
but after crimes
pardoned
and pride follows behind me
Chorus: (same as first)
but when we recovered
i only thought of you
and light remaining after thunder
i realized
how much i cared for you
Bridge:
Guitar 1 plays chords, guitar 2 plays the tab here:
