AT THE BACK OF THE SHELL - The Kills

Duration: 02:27
Tuning: B F# B E G# C#
(Tune to drop D and then tune everything three half-steps lower.
This is to get a low, bassy tone.)
This song is extremely repetitive and easy. It starts with:
C# |------------------------------|
G# |------------------------------|
E |------------------------------|
B |---9-9-9-9---9-9-9-9-9-9-(6)--| *2
F# |------------------------------|
B |------------------------------|
C# |---------------------------|
G# |---------------------------|
E |---------------------------|
B |---9-9-9-9---9-9-9-9-9-9---| *4
F# |---------------------------|
B |---------------------------|
C# |---------------------------|
G# |---------------------------|
E |---------------------------|
B |---------------------------| *2
F# |---7-7-7-7---7-7-7-7-7-7---|
B |---------------------------|
And then it just alternates between the two notes until 01:22:
C# |-----------------------|
G# |-----------------------|
E |-----------------------|
B |---9-9-9-9---9-9-9-9---| *12
F# |-----------------------|
B |-----------------------|
C# |-----------------------|
G# |-----------------------|
E |-----------------------|
B |-----------------------| *4
F# |---7-7-7-7---7-7-7-7---|
B |-----------------------|
Again, alternating between the two notes but with a different rythm, as you can see.
At 02:07 it goes back to the starting rythm and stays that way until the end.
That's basically it! Please e-mail me with improvements and/or suggestions etc...
I hope it's correct - good luck!
