		Plain (311)
	done plainly by jeff terrel	
 
This starts out with an envelope filter or wah doing:
 
	Am  C  B
 
over until [0:36] when it's:
 
	G  Am  G  Am  G  Am  Bm  G
 
and back.  When distortion pops in ("nod your head to this...") repeat:
 
	E  F#  G  F#
 
then at [1:12] it does stuff with an Am, basically sliding or whatever.
 
at [2:36]  it adds to the same riff thing a  --0--0~2-- fill on the G
string (!)

slide up the neck on the E string all the way to the pickups.  Listen to the
