Transcribed by Braamo (bpsmith@socs.uts.edu.au)
Repeated baseline on introduction:

E--------0--(3)-----3--0--(3)-----| () = hammer
then guitar with distortion:

D---7--7--7--7-----|
A---5--5--5--5-----|followed by C power chord
E------------------|
then verse:
D C C
E----------------------------------|
B----------------------------------|
G--7--7----------5-------------5---|
D--7--7----------5-------------5---|repeated
A--5--5----------3-------------3---|
E--------0--(3)-----3--0--(3)------|
chorus:
D D C B C
E------------------------|
B------------------------|
G--7--7-----5-----4--5---|x 3
D--7--7-----5-----4--5---|
A--5--5--0--3--0--2--3---|
E------------------------|
then the chords Bb and Eb
Verse again
Chorus (x2)
D chord hold for many bars
Introduction baseline again
Verse as baseline only
Chorus (x2)
Then this baseline is played:
E----------------------------|
B----------------------------|
G----------------------------|
D----------------------------|
A----------------0--(3)--5---|
E--3--1--0--(3)--------------|
The chords to some of this baseline (ie. G F E C D) are
then played as the singing becomes shouting. The song
quickens in pace a bit at this stage and it becomes a
prick to play all the chords in time -
my advice, do ya best!

A G D C G
The water out of the tap is very .... hard to
A B C
drink....Very hard to drink
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/s/silverchair/israels_son_tab_ver_2.html ]
Following each C chord in this leadin to the chorus, this riff is played:
E---------------------------|
B---------------------------|Parentheses indicate hammering
G--------------3-(5)-0-2--|
D--------3-(5)-------------|
A--3-(5)-------------------|
E---------------------------|
This riff is closely followed by the A chord in the next series of
chords whether its the A-B-C of the leadin or the chorus itself (A-D-C-D)
after the second verse.The exception being in the first verse where the
song goes into a soft interlude:
E---5-5-10--12-10-----------8-10--12-10------------|
B---5-5-10--------10-12-10--8-10--------10-12-10-|
G---------------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------------|
As mentioned above, the chorus is simply A to D to C and back to D.
And thats the whole song:
