Out There Tabs

(ver. 2)
Dinosaur Jr. 
Please read all of the explanations first.                                

                                
                                "Out There"
                                Dinosaur Jr.
                                
                                Recorded on
                              "Where You Been"


This is a (fairly close) transcription of Dinosaur Jr.'s
"Out There." The verse riff and the first solo were posted
transcription into mine, and added the other sections and
the second solo. All the rhythm is TABbed out first, then
the lead at the end.

Have fun!
                                        -Michael Gunter-

P.S. Soon to come: The rest of the "Where You Been" Album.
                   All of Live's "Mental Jewelry" album (guitar and bass).

Note that this is all by ear, so it is at most a reasonable facsimile.
Please pardon the verbosity of my transcriptions; I'm a real perfectionist
when it comes to these things.

 ^^^This is where the rhythm changes (see Verse Riff, above)

The rest of the lead is just a flurry of notes that I'm a combination of too
lazy and too not good enough to figure out. The chorus section is just in D# 
so just solo with the D# MAJOR and D# MAJOR PENTATONIC scales and you'll be 
fine.
