C'MON

FROM SOUNDS OF TURNIPS

Transcribed by Adam Morris

This has got to be the most UNpumpkinesque

song I have heard by SP, but it is a GREAT

song. Very STPish I reckon.

Standard Tuning

INTRO is is a relatively slow slide down from

the 12th fret on the low E-string

Main Riff (Played with strong palm muting later)

|------------------------------------------------------|

|------------------------------------------------------|

|------------------------------------------------------|

|------------------------------------------------------|

|--------------------------------*----------------------|

|-0--0-0--7--10~~--0-7-10~--0--0-0-7h10-6~~-0-0-0-5\\3--|

Replace this 0 with a 6 each 2nd time played.

CHORUS

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|-4--4--4/7-7/9-9-9-\\-4--4--7--7--7-7----------------|

|-4--4--4/7-7/9-9-9-\\-4--4--7--7--7-7----------------|

|-2--2--2/5-5/7-7-7-\\-2--2--5--5--5-5--0-------------|

I can't remember which of these parts comes next in

the song, but they are here any way :)

There is a solo in here somewhere that I don't know

sorry...Randy??

Anyway..the part out of the solo is this:

(very similar to the end part of Drown I

might add!

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|--7~~~~~~----\\2~~~~---/5~~~-----\\2~~~~--------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

Then this is repeated a fair few times.

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|--9\\7/9-9-------------------------------------------|

|--9\\7/9-9---7-8-9-10/12-----------------------------|

|--7\\5/7-7---7-8-9-10/12-----------------------------|

|----------0-5-6-7--8/10--0--------------------------|

Then the part that sounds like it is dying.

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|--9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9---------|

|--9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9---------|

|--7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7---------|

|--7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7---------|

Then back to the fast sort of bit above.

Then goes to this bit a couple of times.

|----------------------------------------------------|

|--------7b-(hold) r----------7b-r-------------------|

|--9--9-----------------9--9---------7-/-9~~~~~------|

|--9--9-----------------9--9-------------------------|

|--7--7-----------------7--7-------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

This leads into the really SNAZZY bit.

With lots of palm muting.

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|----------------------------------------------------|

|---7p5-----------------------6----------------------|

|--------7p6p5\\3-3--0-3-5-6-7------------------------|

Then the above riff changes to this slower riff.

|---------------------------------------------------|

|---------------------------------------------------|

|---------------------------------------------------|

|--------------7-9----------------------------------|

|--5--/7--/8-9-5-7----------------------------------|

|--3--/5--/6-7--------------------------------------|

Apart from the solo and some other lead parts that is

the whole song.

Corrections can most likely be made.
