Sonic Youth

Sonic Youth - Hoarfrost guitar tab

HOARFROST

sort of tabbed by chris lawrence

now, i dont really know much of this song..i'd appreciate any help

i could get. i know thurston's intro, a couple of kim's riffs, and lee's

lead, which i've already forgotten (he plays in some tuning w/ a capo

on the 5th fret...maybe GGDEGD??).

thurston:

B------------------------------------------

B------------------------------------------

G---10---10---10---10----10---10-----------

D-0----0----0----0-----7----7-------7----7-

G---------------------------------9----9---

C------------------------------------------

kim:

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

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

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

G------------------2-2-2-2----------

G--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-2-2-2-2----------

C---------------------------2-2-2-2-

kim also has another riff that goes between these two chords:

D--7----9-

D--7----9-

D--7----9-

G--7----9-

G---------

C---------

i think that's during the 'wheels paddle' part..

lee's lead, heh...i forget it already, but it starts off like this

on the mid E string (w/ capo on 5th fret, making it an A string):

E--0^2^3--0-2-3-5-3-2--2^3^2-0

or something like that..
