Dirty Boots
BY:sonic youth
from:mike abraham (bobbyblu@star.net)

I believe this is Thurston's part---(the intro and verse)

tuning key: u=tune up
d=tune down

tuning: E-dG-D-G-dE-dD (thurston)

intro-
repeat about 4X

|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|----13-------15-------10-------12--------|
|-13---13--15---15--10---10--12---12------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|

verse-
I'm not sure if the strumming is correct but here's my way......

|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4----------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4----------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|


here's one with more bass.Try the one that sounds better.......

|-----------------------------------------|
|-----------------------------------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4----------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4----------------|
|--4-4-7-7-2-2-5-5-5-5-5-4----------------|

ALBUM : Goo
SONG : Dirty Boots

The correct tunage is EEBBEF# for Lee
and EGDGED for Thurston
The following tab is in normal tunage (EADGBE) cause i didn't
want to loose all my strings!
Some parts missing so please send me comments and corrections
or evenmore the correct transcription as soon as possible.

*************************************************************
Start playing Figure 1 and then Figure 2
and after,when Thurston start singing,keep
playing Figure 3 during the following verses :

C5 D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
Here we go to another candle i know
D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
all the girls there playing on a jelly roll
D#5 A#5 C#5 C5

The following part is missing :

time to take a ride
time to take it in a midnight eye
and if you wanna go
get on below
pinking out the day
dreaming out the crazy way
finger on the love
it's all above

Repeat Figure 3 again with :

everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck
a satellite wish will make it just enough
you be making out with a witch in a coffee truck

The following part is missing too :

time to rock the road
and tell the story of the jelly rollin
dirty boots are on
hi de ho
pinking out the black
dreamin' in a crack
satan got her tongue
now it's undone

Then play Figure 2 with :

i got some dirty boots
yeah dirty boots
i got some dirty boots
baby
dirty boots
hey!

After the "noisy-solo" is Figure 4 & Figure 5
and finally Thurston is playing Figure 6.
