FLOWER

tuning: G G D D Eb Eb

tab by chris lawrence 

there honestly isn't a whole lot to tab for this song...
check out a live video of them playing this and it's all
pretty much improvised. a few tips, however...

lee wedges a screwdriver behind the 5th fret, and detunes
the D and Eb strings constantly (you can fake this by just
bending the strings behind the screwdriver, if you want). 

thurston just strums behind the bridge in various places and does 
quiet drone type shit (on the original recording -- subsequent live 
versions were infinitely more intense, w/ steve's tribal beat 
propelling the song, both thurston and lee's guitars spewing forth a 
distorted swamp of atonal fury). if you ever wanna see a nice shiny
new jaguar fretboard get destroyed in about half a second as lee runs 
a screwdriver up the neck under the strings, track down a live
video of "flower" from any given 1991 show...
