Invalid Letter Dept. Tabs

(ver. 1)
At The Drive-In
PROBABLY MY FAVORITE SONG, AT THE DRIVE IN RULED THE WORLD
Intro - Omar takes his pick and taps it above the neck pickup and does 
a lot of pick scr*pes.  He also uses a porcelain slide. 
Use lots of delay.
              

DAMN MESSED UP THE SONG NAME ITS INVALID LITTER DEPT. MY BAD

 Harm.

Then the piano, played by the other guitarist, comes in with the B minor, 
G, D, and G chords.

Intro .20 seconds.  The second guitarist goes to his guitar and plays this.  
Omar plays the exact same thing except he slides the last notes down to nothing 
and adds pick     scr*pes.  He uses a slide as well.  With chorus and delay.

Chorus 1.27 Minutes.  Play 2x’s.  Omar’s part.  You can do two things play this,

and hit an octave pedal that is set for one octave above.
