The other tab you have for the song Gumbo, not only is it wrong you can't do

anything with it unless you have a keyboardist playing and you in the

background!

I am sending you this becuase this is the keyboard and guitar on guitar. No

need for a keyboardist!

please post it ASAP!!!!!!

there is no better tab transcription then this one, because this is the

difinative work that cannot be surpased by anyone!!!!

peace,Erez

Phish-Gumbo

tabbed by-Erez (E-mOnEy!)

This is mostly a transcription of what you should play on guitar, but it's

mostly keyboards.

I am only showing you the chords! Not how many times you strum so print

this and listen to the "A Live One" and play along!

Intro-

-------------------------------------|
-7-----------------------------------|
-8-------6-----------------------8^--|
-8---8---6----------------6-6--8-----|
-6---8---4---6-6-6--9-9-9------------|
-----6-------------------------------|

The rest of the time play these 4 chords.

------4-------------|
-7----4----6----9---|
-8----5----6----8---|
-8----6----6----8---|
-6----6----4----6---|
------4-------------|

Every so often it ends on this chord 606770 instead of 068890.

Lyrics>

There's a mouse starin' out of the window

His car is trapped in the snow

He's planning a family vacation

But he just can't go

Around the next corner's a red bird

His feathers are trapped in a sling

He's passed by some gunslinging parrot

Who's jealous he ain't got no grin

There ain't no time to stash the gumbo

Or rattle around in a cage

The sacrificed child's made bubbles

And spittle is everywhere enraged

In a hot sand or in a my feet

They're blistered and caked with debris

Chez rolez is guarding the tote board

While Angry piddles with glee

There's a fool writing notes out on sandpaper

He's sending them off to himself

He gets them a couple days later

Who put them along his top shelf

If you get tired of shavings

And carve up a good hunk of wood

Remembering to check on the sausage

He's got cooking somewhere look good

I hope this helps. Peace,E-mOnEy!

Gumbo-by Phish

Intro-I'm not sure if the intro is single note, or pieces of chords, but

I'll write it out as if it's chord pieces, and if you don't like how it

sounds, then just play the bass note.
