Matte Kudasai

Intro:

[A verse with no words, Adrian solos in E major and its related modes 
with
a slide.  He also puts lots of slide licks in when there are no words.]


Verse 1:

(Verse Riff)
Stare at the window pane,

(Verse Riff with alternate ending)
Stare at the rain that's falling.

Chorus:

(Chorus Riff 1a)
She waits in the air,

Chrous Riff 1b)
Matte Kudasai.

(Chorus Riff 1a)
She sleeps in a chair,

(Chrous Riff 1c)

(Chorus Riff 2a)
In her sad America.

(Chorus Riff 2b)

[no lyrics]


Verse 2:

[same as Verse 1]

Long, long is the night alone,

Long, like the notes I'm sending.

Chorus


  Verse Riff:
                                                       (*)

(*)  Fripp improvises on this bit, so try different things out.  Mostly
triple stops.  e.g.,


E|----5-/-7--5-/-7-|----|      
B|----5-/-7--5-/-7-|----|      
G|----4-/-6--4-/-6-|----|      
D|-----------------|----|      
A|-----------------|----|      
E|--0--------------|--0-| etc.

(Note:  this fingering is really tough.  I recommend doing stretching

exercises before attempting it.  I recommend using a thumb fret for the
bass string, but if you can finger it some other way, go for it!)

NOTE:  I forgot to indicate that you need to play each measure twice on
Chrous Riffs 1a and 1b.  Please edit the file accordingly, replacing 
the
line titled "segue -> Chorus Riff 1a    Chorus Riff 1b" in the original
 with
the lines below.
