Stone Temple Pilots

Simplified interpretation - intended to be close enough to jam to, not exact! I offer,

hopefully, all the breakdown and detail you need to get started on this classic. Add in

complexity as desired with other tabs. I've migrated about 5 tabs into this version, and

modified some of that to an easier set. Now, this has just become the way I play the song

all the time, so I thought I'd share. (Oh, and below is the best breakdown of the intro).

Tuning: Down 1 whole step (to D) (1/2 step works nicely too)

Chords:

G = 3x0033 (or 320033, open G)

G2 = 355433 (G barre)

Gm = 355333 (or use 365333, x11333)

D/F# = 2x0232

F = 133211

C = x32010

D = xx023x (or xx0232)

Cadd9 = x3x030 (or x32033)

G/B = x2x033 (or x20033)

Chord Notes:

The chords of contraversy are going to be the G barre and Gm. The closest tab shows a Eb7/G

(365333) played for both of these. Though, that didn't sound right and was hard to play

(maybe the later is why it sounded off to me). I think the Gm with the mellower Chorus 1

("where you going for tommorrow...") strumming and mutes sounds pretty cool (even if not

exact). Then switching to a regular G bar in the main Chorus ("when the dogs to find

her...") sounds just fine for rocking it out a bit more (changing things up, etc). Same

thing with the regular F barre, sounds just fine to me, and matches up with my Gm and G

barre nicely. If my chords are too simplified, tinker with them. But, I layout the song and

break it down it with good enough detail that this version should be useful.
