King Crimson: Three of a Perfect Pair 
                     By: Martin van Wijk (M.C.vanWijk@fys.ruu.nl) 
********************************************************************************

Here's my transcription of ToaPP. I know this song was transcribed a few
years back in "Guitar"-magazine, but I couldn't get my hands on a copy so
I put myself to work...I know this is not perfect, so any feedback would
be welcome.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The song starts with the verse pattern in Cm

Figure 1  (6/8)
| Guitar 1
||------------|------------|------------|------------|
||------------|------------|------------|------------|
||------8-----|-----%------|-----%------|-----%------|
||10----------|------------|------------|------------|
||----6---8---|------------|------------|------------|
||--8-------6-|------------|------------|------------|
|
| Guitar 2
||8---------8-|----------6-|------------|------------|
||------8-----|------8-----|------8---6-|------8-6---|
||--------5---|5-------5---|5-------5---|5---------8-|
||----5-------|----5-------|----5-------|----5-------|
||--6---------|--6---------|--6---------|--6---------|
||------------|------------|------------|------------|

(The C note with which each bar of guitar 2 starts is 
sometimes played on the high E string like in bar 1, 
and sometimes on the G string like in bar 2,3 and 4. 
Listen to the song to get it exactly right.)

Play Fig. 1 twice.

Figure 2  (6/8) Fm
| Guitar 1
||------------|------------|------------|------------|
||8-----9-----|------------|------------|------------|
||--10----10--|-----%------|-----%------|-----%------|

||----------5-|-----%------|-----%------|-----%------|
||------------|------------|------------|------------|

Then play Fig. 1 once, followed by:

Figure 3  (6/8)  Gm

||------------|------------|------------|------------|
||10----11----|------------|------------|------------|
||--12----12--|-----%------|-----%------|-----%------|

||--8-----8---|------------|------------|------------|
||----------7-|-----%------|-----%------|-----%------|
||------------|------------|------------|------------|
||------------|------------|------------|------------|
||------------|------------|------------|------------|

(Not completely sure about these parts, maybe lower notes 
are also played, but that is only because Adrian seems 
to play also lower notes on the Live in Japan video.)

Then Fig. 2 again, followed by Fig. 1. This completes 
one verse pattern. Play this pattern again for the 
second verse.

Then the chorus:
Figure 4  (7/8)  Am

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

Play Fig. 5 twice, followed by the same figure two fret higher,
in Em. Play that figure once, followed by Fig. 5.

Then, guitar 1 plays the six note pattern of Fig. 1 three frets 
lower, in Am, while guitar 2 plays a eight note pattern over this.

Figure 6   Am

Then again the verse pattern, the chorus pattern and 
Fig. 6 ( - only guitar 1 ).
The solo is over 4 bars of (in 7/8): F#5,D,F#5,F#5,D,E5,F#5,
mostly played on the A and D strings.
After the solo again the chorus, played twice.
The song ends with Fig. 6 until it fades out.
