Vasoline Tabs

(ver. 2)
Stone Temple Pilots
"Vasoline" by Stone Temple Pilots
Written by Patrick Sanguily

First, there's a fade-in with feedback (1) which is soon doubled by a guitar doing hammer-ons from A to Bb (2) and another guitar does upstrokes on a really weird chord (see "bridge" section WAY below) then there's a little descending thing (3) right before you go into the main riff...

Lyrics:
One time a thing occurred to me
What's real and what's for sale
Blew a kiss and tried to take it home.
(CHORUS:
Isn't you, isn't me
Search for things that you can't see.
Goin't blind, out of reach
Somewhere in the Vasoline.)
Two times and it has rendered me
Punch drunk and without bail
Think I'd be safer all alone.
Flies in the vasoline we are
Sometimes it blows my mind
Keep getting stuck here all the time.
(Chorus)
(Bridge:
You'll see the look
And you'll see the lies.
You'll eat the lies
And you will...)
(solo)
Flies in the vasoline we are
Sometimes it blows my mind
Keep getting stuck here all the time.
(chorus)


Here’s the Solo!

Hey one more thing, instead of playing that f**ked up chord that I had in my original tab (during the intro and bridge) try this:

E---0---
B---3---
G---3---
D---3---
A---0---
E-------
