Subject: CRD: Very First Lie by Material Issue

I just figured this one out. I'm not sure about the solo, but it's

close. Anyway, enjoy!

Very First Lie by Material Issue

Album: International Pop Overthrow

Transcribed by Brad Heim <bheim@jhunix.hcf.jhu.edu>

Note: In general, the C and Am chords are played normal first, then

changed by bringing the pinky up to the fourth fret, then playing

the normal chord, then releasing the pointer finger.I don't know the

names of these chords, but if you listen to the album, you'll see what I

mean.
