Then the rest of the song is basically just a combination
or F, C and Am chords. A classic "3 chord"-er.

           
There's also this little bit, or something similar.

Red Mosquito


A couple of people have said they've seen PJ play this live and
it's in standard tuning. I've also been told that the opening riff
is played at the 5th fret so I've tried to figure it out there,
I hope it sounds OK. 
Anyone want to have a go at the solos?

Intro riff x 8


Verse 1:

Watched out the window with a red mosquito
I was not allowed to leave the room
I saw the sun go down and now it's coming up
Somewhere in the time between


Chorus:

I was bitten
must have been the devil
He was just paying me

A little visit
Reminded me of his presense
Letting me know

He's waiting


Intro riff x4


Verse 2:

Red man's your neighbor call it behavior
While you're climbing up slippery hills
Two steps ahead of him punctures in your neck
hovering just above your bed hovering just above your bed


Chorus

Lukin

Verse - E5 (D5) E5 (C5) - The Chords In Parenthesis Are The Pull Off Chords.
I SEE THEM SUFFER 
I SEE MY WORLD, MY f**kING HOME
I'D NEVER LEAVE YOU, NEVER LEAVE YOU, RUN AWAY FROM HOME
I NEVER THOUGHT I'D NEVER CHANGE MY MIND AWAY FROM HOME
I'M GOING TO LEAVE RIGHT NOW
I'M LEANING ON THE WEIGHT ALONE


Chorus - E5 D5 C5 - The End Of The Chorus Is A Quick Slide Down From C5 By
D5 And E5.
OH, I LOVE LUKIN
OH, I LOVE LUKIN
I LOVE LUKIN
LOOKING FOR SOME PROOF
IS THAT HOW MY LIFE IS RUN?


Verse - E5 (D5) E5 (C5) - The Chords In Parenthesis Are The Pull Off Chords.
I SEE MYSELF UP
I LEAVE IT ON THE WAVE ALONE
I'D NEVER LEAVE YOU, NEVER TAKE MY WORLD, MY f**kING HOME
I NEVER THOUGHT THAT I COULD TAKE MY WORLD AWAY FROM HOME
I CAN'T DENY IT
I CAN'T CONTROL MYSELF

The first time through, Mike lets it end at the G, the second time (not 
shown) a D.

Then the bridge goes like this, (with variations on the picking 
pattern):

Bb                            A                         G

Then:

Outro:

While mike plays the verse, Stone does this:

--------------------------       /14-------14-------14-------
15-13----15-13----15-13--- etc.  ----12-12----12-12----12-12-

Verse 1: (main riff)

Do you see the way that tree bends
 
does it inspire,

leaning out to catch the suns rays

a lesson to be applied

are you getting something out of this

all encompassing trip


Chorus: (chorus riff)


You can't spend your time alone,

redigesting past regrets.....Oh

You can't come to terms  and realise

your the only one who cannot forgive yourself

Makes much more sense,

to live in the present tense


2nd verse: (main riff)


Have you ideas on how this life ends,

Checked your ends and studied the line,

Have you ever belived that the road ahead

sands off into the light

seems that needlessly it getting harder

to find an approach and no where to live

are we getting something out of this

all encompassing trip
