Figure the rhythms out from the recording... I'm just writing the notes. Intro: G:------------------------------ D:---2---3---------4---5----- A:-----------2---3---------6-- E:------------------------------ Pickup: G:--------------------- D:--------------------- A:--------------------- E:---0---1---2---3-- A section: G:------------------------------ D:------------------------------ A:-------1---2------------------ E:--3-3---------3---3---1---2--- Repeat a lot with occasional variations. Variation A: G:------------------------------ D:------------------------------ A:-------1---2------------------ E:--3-3---------3---3---/12\---- Variation B: G:------------------------------ D:------------------------------ A:-------1---2------------------ E:--3-3---------3---0---1---2--- B section: G:------------------------------- D:------------------------------- A:---7-7---7-7----7-7-4-5-6--- E:-------------------------------- For power, you can play the low E in unison with the high E. Repeat 3 times, then play a C and let it ring a bit, and then resume the A section. I am really not sure what happens here, but what I just suggested usually sounds OK. After a bit... G:----------------- D:----------------- A:----------------- E:---8---8---8---(keep playing for two measures) G:----------------------------------------- D:----------------------------------------- A:---7---7---7---7----9----9-9---9---10---- E:----------------------------------------- Bass Solo Section 1 G:----13^15^13----------------------- D:------------------12-11---12------ A:--------------------------------- E:---------------------------------- G:----------------------15-------- D:---------------11^13------14--- A:---9-11-13-------------------- E:-------------------------------- G:---------12----17--17---15---12^13^12-------- D:----------------------------------------15-- A:---10--------------------------------------- E:-------------------------------------------- G:-----------------15^17----------------- D:----14^15--17------------14---15---- A:---------------------------------------------- E:---------------------------------------------- G:----------------12--------------------- D:----13---15---------------12-------- A:----------------------13-------------- E:---------------------------------------- G:-----------------18^20--------------------- D:----17^18--20-------------17--18---17---- A:------------------------------------------------ E:------------------------------------------------ The next four notes are actually stick notes an octave down. If you have a five-string, use it. G:-------------------- D:--1--2---3--4------- A:-------------------- E:-------------------- Then resume main riff, then section B. Section B this time goes straight into the "after a bit" section, which is a little bit different this time. After a Bit 2: G:-------------------------------------------- D:-------------------------------------------- A:---------------------------------------7--9-- E:--8-(play for almost two measures)-9-------- G:---------------- D:---------------- A:--10--9--7------- E:-------------8--- Bass Solo Section 2: G:---------------------------------- D:--13^15^13------------------- A:-----------------12--11--12--- E:---------------------------------- G:---------------------------------13---- D:----------------------------15---------- A:--------------------11^13----------------- E:---- 9--11--13------------------------- G:------------------------------17--19--21---- D:-----12--17--15--17--19-------------------- A:----------------------------------------------- E:----------------------------------------------- G:--20--------------------------------20--19---- D:------20--18--17--------17--18/20------------ A:-------------------18----------------------- E:------------------------------------------- G:-----------18--16------------------------- D:--18---18------------19---18--15--16------- A:------------------------------------------- E:------------------------------------------- G:-----------13-----------------11----------- D:--14--16-------------12--14-------------11- A:----------------14-----------------12------ E:------------------------------------------- G:----------------12^14---------------19^21-- D:---10--12--14-----------18^19--21---------- A:------------------------------------------- E:------------------------------------------- G:---------------- D:---18--19--18--- A:---------------- E:---------------- Outro: G:-------------------------- D:-------------------------- A:--1--2----------3--4------ E:---------1--2----------5-- G:-------------------------- D:-------------------------- A:--3--4----------5--6------ E:---------3--4----------7-- G:-------------------------- D:-------------------------- A:--5--6----------7--8------ E:---------5--6----------9-- For marine coda, just keep descending chromatically from C. When you run out of room, go up an octave. Ends on a C. ******************************************************************************** King Crimson: VROOOM By: Martin van Wijk (wijk0035@wxs.nl) ******************************************************************************** |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |--------7-6-----|--------6-5-----|--------5-3-----|----------------| |--------7-6-----|--------6-5-----|--------5-3-----|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |3---3-----------|----3-----------|----3-----------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |--------7-6-----|--------6-4-----|--------4-3-----|----------------| |--------7-6-----|--------6-4-----|--------4-3-----|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |3---3-----------|----3-----------|----3-----------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |--------8-7-----|--------7-6-----|--------6-5-----|----------------| |--------8-7-----|--------7-6-----|--------6-5-----|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |3---3-----------|----3-----------|----3-----------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |--------7-6-----|--------6-5-----|--------5-3-----|----------------| |--------7-6-----|--------6-5-----|--------5-3-----|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |3---3-----------|----3-----------|----3-----------|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |--------34-3----|--------3-2-----|--------2-1-----|----------------| |--------34-3----|--------3-2-----|--------2-1-----|----------------| |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------|x2 |----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| |0---0-----------|----0-----------|----0-----------|----------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |--7-3------------3-4-5-------------3-4-----------------------------| |--8-4------1-2-5-------------1-2-5-----5---------------------------| |---------3-----------------3---------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| bass-fill Then the main riff again, but minus the second bars 5-8, followed by: |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |--7-3---3-7---7---7-6---6---6-5---5---5-4--------------------------| |--8-4---4-8--8----8-7--7----7-6--6----6-5--------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------| |-------------------------------------------------------------------|
