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)
