In this song the QOTSA seem to never play the same riff twice, but I'll try my hardest...

 

1/2 step down and Dropped D (making E a Db, or C# if you like, I'll tab it as E)

but DON'T tune down D or G, making this look like Db, Ab, D, G

 

I'm going to number the riffs to make this a little less typing...

 

Riff #1

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-222222222222222-333333333333333-------------------------------------

E---------------------------------444444444444444-0000000000000000----

 

Riff #2

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-222222222222222-333333333333333-------------------------------------

E---------------------------------444444444444444-4444444444444444----

 

Then the guitar comes in, and you *play riff 1 again*, then

 

Riff #3

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-222222222222222-023333333333333-23555555555555555555555555555555----

E---------------------------------------------------------------------

Play the 023 and the 235 (they use that variation a lot in this song, but it

happens at random) or it doesn't sound right, then *play riff 1 again* then

 

Riff #4

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-222222222222222-333333333333333-555555555555555---------------------

E-------------------------------------------------4444444444444444----

 

Then riff 1 again, leading to riff 2 (this is where they go nuts on the

variations) and I'm not %100 sure about this one

 

Riff 5

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D-000000000000000-111111111111111-------------------------------------

A---------------------------------2222222222222222--------------------

E--------------------------------------------------2222222222222222---

 

Play that 3 times, then

 

Riff 5 (variation)

G---------------------------------------------------1----3--1---------

D-000000000000000-111111111111111-3333333333333333--------------------

A---------------------------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Then play normal riff 5 again, and finally the chorus!

 

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-2222222222222222222222222222222-555555555555555---------------------

E-------------------------------------------------4444444444444444----

 

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A---------------------------------------------------------------------

E-0000000000000000----------------------------------------------------

 

Then the Pro-Chorus or the after chorus (get some rhythm going!!)

 

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-22222222-3333-------------------------------------------------------

E---------------44444444-0000-----------------------------------------

 

Then the bridge, which has no bass and then these riffs in order:

 

Riff 1

Riff 2

Riff 5

Riff 5 (var)

Riff 2

Riff 3

 

Then the chorus again, when you hear the variation it is

 

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-2222222222222222222222222222222-555555555555555-7777666666666666----

E---------------------------------------------------------------------

 

and then the open E, then finally the outro:

 

G---------------------------------------------------------------------

D---------------------------------------------------------------------

A-222222222-3333------------------------------------------------------

E---------------------------------------------------------------------
