Slippery When Wet Tabs

(ver. 1)
The Acorn
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tuning: Standard
Capo 3rd fret

Done as accurately by ear as I could manage. The rhythm is a little difficult to keep in 
the tab, so you'll have to listen to the song to get it exactly right. Enjoy!

This repeats throughout the song, with various hammer-ons and solos added onto it.


C                     Am
Panda panda climb your tree
         F                        C
There's a life you live in spite of me
     C                         Am
And for all the fruit that bore your seed
         F                        C
There's a wet worm waiting by your feet
Em                   Am
By your feet, by your feet
F                              C
There's another apple you don't need

And oh, I cursed the weight of me
The heavy purse drug by your feet
And the dead-straight line that pulled you in
Got tangled in our spiral spin
In our spin, in our spin
The tangle that I left you in

And oh, the love I thought we had
A tire-tread that slips when wet
And I convinced myself of my belief
That behind each branch a fallen leaf
Fallen leaves, fallen leaves
I count the colours at my feet.
