Papercut
5 String Bass - Standard Tuning

Here's my take on Papercut.  I've tried to be as detailed as possible 
even down to the single note differences (you can see that on 
the outro).
The intro and chorus don’t sound right at first.  At first I thought 
it went:
G|----------------------------|
D|----------------------------|
A|-------7\6-6\2--2-2-----2h4-|
E|----------------------4-----|
B|-2-2-2----------------------|
But it didn’t quite sound right.  If you listen really carefully 
you can hear it is actually how I’ve written it below.
You might want to play it the way I’ve written it above, it kinda 
sounds better, but I promise you the one below is more accurate.
Also you can play the outro in 3 different hand positions.  I’ve 
written the one I find the most comfortable and sounds the best 
on my bass.
Hope you enjoy it, let me know what you think.

	Um, IMO. The song is about a person who is very 'self critical'. A person who looks back on past desisions and critisises themselves for them. The whole 'paranoia' element, is about being afraid to make choices, beleiving they'll be poor ones.

No Picture santiago Rhythm Player	#2 by santiago carvajal at Apr 9, 2007 at 6:18 PM EST
	Goddamn! This song is my life. I can relate to it so much. LP has got to be one of the best bands out right now.

No Picture Justin Wanna Be	#3 by Justin for-a-minute at Jun 4, 2007 at 11:34 PM EST
	this song fits paranoia, and that little voice in our heads, HA
