Backwater by Meat Puppets
MEAT PUPPETS - Backwater guitar tab
From: [email protected] (Mike Livengood 225-3525)
Subject: CHRD/TAB "Backwater"
Here is a general transcription of "Backwater" by Meat puppets. I didn't have
time to nail down the bridge so you'll have to do some interpreting on your own.
(I'll work more on it later). The intro lick that I have transcribed is also
just an approximation of what is played. It's a simple lick in E major
pentatonic that you should be able to pick out purely by ear. I'll follow up
with more detail in a few days. Meanwhile we can get started on it.

Backwater
-Meat puppets
Intro (E-C#m-C-D) with solo guitar melody line
Muted dirty guitar
E5 F#5
And when I wake up in the morning
C5 E5
To feel the daybreak on my face
E5 F#5
There's a blood that's flowin' through the feeling
C5 E5
With a knife to open up the sky's vein
E C#m
Some things...will never change
C
They just stand there looking backwards
D
Half unconscious from the pain
E C#m
It may seem...rearranged
C D
In the backwater swirling there is something that'll never change
And when I shoulda' been gone a long time
Laughs...and says I find ways
Just when we're sheltered under paper
The rockets come at us sideways
E C#m
Some things...will never change
C
They just stand there looking backwards
D
Half unconscious from the pain
E C#m
It may seem...rearranged
C D
In the backwater swirling there is something that'll never change
F-G C B
Hey...I'm blind
D
Good...fine
C B
Roll the time
D
On whose dime?
-Solo-(over E-C#m-C-D)
And when I wake up in the morning
To feel the daybreak on my face
There's a blood that's flowin' through the ceiling
With a knife to open up the sky's vein
Some things...will never change
They just stand there looking backwards
Half unconscious from the pain
It may seem...rearranged
In the backwater swirling there is something that'll never change
Some things...will never change
They just stand there looking backwards
Half unconscious from the pain
It may seem...rearranged
In the backwater swirling there is something that'll never change
