Mike's Song, I am Hydrogen, Weekapaug Groove

By PHISH

Here's my complete version of all three songs, usually played
together at concerts in the order I will transcribe them.  Thanks a
lot to [email protected] for two of the three songs.. I uploaded the
chords to I Am Hydrogen, and saw the other two up there, and figured
I'd make it into one file entry.  I play them together, because they
go together.  Here they are:

Mike's Song    |

Intro Riff, repeat through verse

      C#m                            D        A
E|-----------------------------|----------------------------|
B|-----------------------------|-10--10-10---10-------------|

A|----------9--9-10-11---------|----------------------------|
E|-9-9-12----------------------|----------------------------|

        ^Verses start on this note

     C#m               D                 A
Trapped in time and I don't know what to do
     C#m                     D              A
These friends of mine, I can see them right through.
     C#m                    D             A
You don't gotta tell me and I don't gotta move
     C#m                     D           A
'Cause I'm sittin' back here sharin' the groove.

                       PaigeMe no are no nice guy

 same chords as earlier


...walk through the hallways inside my mind
I chase the backbeat from behind
Big dude in the doorway was blockin' my way
He reached to grab me and this is what he said:

Me no are no nice guys (x3)

Then go stacatto between these two chord formations :

E|-------|
B|---9-7-|
G|---9-7-|
D|---9-7-|
A|-------|
E|-------|

Then back to the "me no are no nice guys" riff, then back to the
stacatto chords, then switch over to :

F#m7 --> B   back and forth for a LONG time
D E F#m7 a couple of times, back to F#m7 --> B then
D E F#m7 twice, then the 12-tone chromatic walkdown from F#-& to
|F#m7 A E F :| repeaded 8 times, stopping on the E and letting it
ring on the last time.

===================
I am Hydrogen     |
===================

Background alternating between E and A chords.

After a few bars of alternating between the chords F
and B ...

    A                       E

E------9---------9-7--------7-----------------------|
B---------------------10--9----10--9-7--------------|
G---9--------9----------------------------9---------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|

   A                         E

E------9---------9-7------------------|
B---------------------10--9-----------|
G------------9----------------9-------|
D-------------------------------------|
A-------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------|

The above repeats a couple of times before going onto
this:

     A                           E
E----(7)-9-----7--9-12-----9-12-14----12-14-13------|
B---------------------------------------------------|
G---9-----------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|
          A                    E
E--14-16-17----16-17-19-17-16-12--------------------|
B---------------------------------------------------|
G---------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|


Then back to the first part a couple more times

After that, it goes something like this :

E----(7)--9----7--9-7--------9---------9-12-11-12---|
B---------------------10--9---------9---------------|
G--9------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|

E-14-12-11--9-12-11--9------------------------------|
B----------------------12---------------------------|
G---------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|

Then comes a bunch of ascending scales alternating
between Paige and Trey, but I couldn't get those down.
After that, hit an E chord and let it ring into Weekapaug...

Tryin' to make a woman match your moves
And we're sharing in the Weekapaug Groove.


  That's it.
