St Vincent - Marrow
Album: Actor (2009)
I love love love this song. Since I heard it on Letterman I really wanted to know how to
play the sax-ish parts, so I tried to figure it out. Corrections are VERY welcome!

Klarinet-part, two ways to play, I like them both. The first gives you that glitchy not-yet-sound.

I have no clue what to play during the verse except for the scratching on the strings.

I thought it's kinda silly to try and play the solo as correct as possible. Listen
closely and you'll understand. Buy a fuzz and an octaver and take the chance to go mental
yourself ;)
I'm not sure about the fourth note in chorus b. Is it an a, a# or c? Please tell me if
you have an idea! (triple rhyme!)
