Mescaline- Robert Francis

Tuning: Standard
This is to the live version, sorry if it doesn't match up with the recorded version,
I know there are two extra notes in between each sliding segment in the intro
Intro:
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
B|----------------------------7-9/12-11-12-11/9-9-7--------------------------|
G|-pb6-4-6/8---6b-6-4-6-4--6/8----------------------8/6-4~-------------------|
D|--------------------------------------------------------6-4-/9-------------|
A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
He does the intro with a slide, but I find you can get the same affect but using your
and picking from under the string and kind of snapping it (Turn your thumb so that its
is facing you and pick underneath the string)
*The notated E in the chorus is an octave up at the 7th fret
The F7 can be played like a normal 7th chord but I believe he might play it this way
e--2
b--5
g--3
d--2
a--4
e--2
With the octave, just play a 7th and use your pinky for the octave (5th fret)
