|-------------------|-----------|
|-------------------|.---6-4-6-.|

|-4-----2-----------|--4--------|  x2,then:

|-----3---3-6-6---4-6-4-6-4-6-4-----------------------------|
|---5---4-----------------------4-3-4-3-4-3-4-3-------------|

	yeah...this is about hendrix wanting to make love to music instead of women...man the sex would be so much better. Weird cause manic depression is the same thing as bi- polar...strange ehy?

No Picture Dan Average	#5 by Dan Christopher at Sep 28, 2007 at 7:30 AM EST
	Of what's already been posted, I agree most with renataa. He's sick of his relationships (and probably failures) with women, and all he has left is his music.

No Picture Brandon Average	#8 by Brandon Young at Oct 2, 2007 at 3:45 PM EST
	I have a live version in which Hendrix explains that this is about "a cat wishing he could make love to a music instead of the same old everyday woman."
