Song

Riverhead By Prick

==================

Arranged and TAB'd by Bucky LaDieu <nega@vt.edu>

This is the best I could do with a partial transcription that was

shown to me. "Riverhead" has two 'bass' parts and this is an

arrangement that is close to what I play. The section that is repeated

four times at the end, actually continues underneath the solo until the

song ends. I *strongly* recomend listening to this song several times

before you play it, and of course listen as you play. Standard tuning.
