I'M INSANE

tab by chris lawrence

tuning: DDDDEA (lee)   not that it matters...

For this song there are several guitar parts on the record, but at
least one live version features just Lee on guitar while Thurston reads
the lyrics from cue cards...

there's some type of delay loop rolling in the background.

then a muted loop begins.

Lee enters, randomly tuning strings up and down... you may want to
play this behind a screwdriver, Flower style, but it doesn't matter.

alternately, you can just run a drumstick up and down the strings like
a slide for the same basic effect (this is probably what he's doing).

when the bass/vocals enter, basically keep at it, any way you choose...

when thurston sings "take off your mask..." start running the drumstick 
up and down the strings rapidly.

Lee's entire part is basically just a variety of those tricks.

when thurston starts repeating the "she was significant, i'm insane"
part, just keep running a drumstick up and down the fretboard.

continue until justice is might!
