harmonics* harm. harm. harm.

* These harmonics are produced by lightly applying your index

finger to the low E and gradually sliding from around fret 1.75

to 4 or so. A good way of looking at this is letting your finger

touch the E while setting back up for the C octave chord.

Put in Es (|022100| or |079900|) in the part that goes:

"Emptiness is lovliness and\Lovliness is cleanliness and\

Cleanliness is godliness and\God is empty just like me."

then repeat *1 and that's Zero!

Zero - Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness

Transcribed by Adam Morris

I haven't seen this tabbed yet, so here it is.

1/2 step down

* above note means harmonics. If 2.5 is written that means

that you place your finger RIGHT in the middle of the third

fret.

Practice may be needed to get the right sound out of these

harmonics, but I assure you..they are correct.
