Some say this song is just a guitar.  Others, like me, think its a acoustic bass.
For this song, the way i have tabbed it out, you will need to tune your G and D string down 
a half step each 
and leave the others as E and A.  I've tabbed out each variation for each part with there 
proper time in the 
song at which they appear.  There is a LOT of them.

^ = Hammer On/Pull Off
~ = Ring Out
/ = Slide Up
 = Slide Down
b = bend
x = mute
() = Optional Note

No Picture alex Lead Player	#1 by alex beaulieu at Nov 13, 1972 at 6:50 AM EST
	It's about doing mushrooms. "Some things are so the mind can breath" - A psychadelic experience is a lot of times refreshing and a needed experience. "Waiting is hard—fucking takes so long" - he's waiting for the drug to kick in. "Earth Acid cleanses me, it cleanses me clean" - If you've done shrooms you'd know its got many parallels to acid (LSD), but it is like "earth's acid" because it comes from the earth The verse that starts with the line "I lay on my side on the edge of the room" is about actually being under the influence of the drug. He is tripping out. The earth has given him this gift and she does not expect anything in return for the trip.

No Picture Daniel Wanna Be	#2 by Daniel Phillips at Nov 13, 1975 at 12:09 AM EST
	All I know about this song is that it's absolutely beautiful. The hushed lyrics and the guitar changing it's pace go so well

No Picture Derek Wanna Be	#3 by Derek Wilkinson at Oct 23, 1995 at 5:17 PM EST
	I like this song very much, and according to me speaks about sex: "I lay on my side in the edge of the WOMB", not room! I think this passage speaks about that kind of women who are only able to have sex, not more. Always IMHO!

No Picture Cuboctahedron Wanna Be	#4 by Cuboctahedron at Dec 10, 2004 at 11:02 AM EST
	Utterly fabulous song! Awesome...I love all the different meanings you people came up with.
