The --3(b3.5)r3(b3.5)-- bit means pick at 3, bend it so the tone matches

what would be half way between 3 and 4, release the bend, and repeat, so

you pick on the third and fourth beats of that bar. Easy innit? :)

It may not be 100% accurate, but it's a good approximation anyway :)

Lyrics:

------

Duck you under

Deep salt water

Bring me lover

All your power

I'll be no hell

Out of your spell

Over, under

Die of pleasure

("guitar w/fuzz" bit)

Hear my dreaming

You'll be drowning

Hell's no god above

All drunk on my love

("chorus" bits)

You oughtta hear my long snake

Moan!

You oughtta see me crawl my

Moan!

("guitar w/distortion" bit)

Duck you under

Deep salt water

In my dreaming

You'll be drowning

Raise me up lord

Call me Lazarus

Hey lord help me

Make me my fail

You oughtta hear my long snake

Moan!

You oughtta see me crawl my...

Moan!

it's my voodoo working (x4)

moan! (x4)

woo!

moan! (x3)
