TO PARTER - Butthole Surfers

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Tabbed by: Tyler J

Email: full_metal_orange AT hotmail DOT com

Tuning: Standard

The guitar on the Cream Corn EP version seems to be tuned

a little bit higher than E, but not quite F.

Intro:

E---------------------------------------------------------|

B---------------------------------------------------------|

G--slowly bend upwards------------------------------------|

D-----------------------12-12-----12-12-----12-12----12---| REPEAT

A--13-13-13-13-13-13-13-----------------------------------|

E------------------------0--0-0-0-------0-0--------0--0---|

play in a chunky way, picking muted strings along with the notes.

There's another guitar in the right speaker, playing something

similar to the 1st guitar, with tremolo on it.

There's also a lead guitar at times:

Lead gtr overtop:

E--b18r----18---18---18--|

B----------17---17---17--|

G------------------------|

D------------------------|

A------------------------|

E------------------------|

at the end of that section, one guitar plays:

E-------------------|

B-------------------|

G-------------------|

D--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|

A--2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|

E--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0--| etc

and the other plays:

E------------------------|

B------------------------|

G------------------------|

D--12-12-12-12-12-12-12--| etc

A---X--X--X--X--X--X--X--|

E---0--0--0--0--0--0--0--|

then repeat the intro.

the solo gtr plays this: (bend/shake each note)

E--18~-18~-18~-18-18-18-18-18~-18~-18~---18-18-18-16~-16~--|

B--17~-17~-17~-17-17-17-17-17~-17~-17~---17-17-17-15~-15~--|

G----------------------------------------------------------|

D----------------------------------------------------------|

A----------------------------------------------------------|

E----------------------------------------------------------|

E--16-16-16--16\\18-18\\19-19/18-18/16-16~~--|

B--15-15-15--15\\17-17\\18-18/17-17/15-15~~--|

G------------------------------------------|

D------------------------------------------|

A------------------------------------------|

E------------------------------------------|

Repeat that as a basic lead.

As it builds up, one gtr starts droning on the low E chord and

the right speaker guitar starts playing this:

E------------------------------|

B------------------------------|

G--12-12-12-12----12-12-12-----| keep repeating a variation on this...

D--12-12-12-12----12-12-12-----| at the end of this section pull off to

A--------------14----------14--| the open high B and E strings...

E------------------------------|

THEN:

E-----------------------------| optional open high B and E strings

B-----------------------------|

G----X-9-X-9-X-9-X-9-X-9-10b--|

D----X-9-X-9-X-9-X-9-X-9-10b--| or just do a subtle slide up to F...

A----X-7-X-7-X-7-X-7-X-7------| repeat w/ out going to F, then to VERSE.

E--0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0------|

VERSE:

E---------------------------------------|

B---------------------------------------|

G--9-9-9-9-9-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4--|

D--9-9-9-9-9-5-5-5-5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4--|

A--7-7-7-7-7-3-3-3-3-3-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2--|

E---------------------------------------|

repeat the E / F riff, then:

SOLO:

E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

B--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

G--------------------0-------0--------------------------0-------4-4-4---------4-4-4-0--|

D----2-4-5-4-2^0---2-------2---2---2--------2-4-5-2-0-----2----------------------------|

A----------------3-----3-2-------2------2-------------3-----3-2--------2-2-2-----------|

E--0---------------------------------3b---0--------------------------------------------|

E--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

B----0---0-X-X-------------------------------------------------------------------------|

G------0-X-X-X-0------------------------------------------------------0-0-2^0-\\4-2-0---|

D--4-----X-X-X----2-0-2-0---0-2-0-----2--------2-4-5--5-4-5-4-2---2-4----------------/-|

A-------------------------3-------3-2------2--------------------3b---------------------|

E---------------------------------------3b---0-----------------------------------------|

The next solo (Gibby?) is far more buried but follows something like this

over the verse chords:

E--------------------------16--15--14----19---21--| bend.......

B--------------16--15--14---/---/---/-----/----/--|

G--16--15--14---/---/---/-------------------------|

D---/---/---/-------------------------------------|

A-------------------------------------------------|

E-------------------------------------------------|

listen to the EP for the picking patterns and how to bend/shake the notes.

For the last verse, play the first solo instead of the normal verse chords.

After that there's another Gibby solo.

Meltdown on B ..........

..........then down to Bb .........

......................

...... then completely dissolve to E noizzzze............................. xxx
