Truckers Atlas ? by Modest Mouse
Album: Lonesome Crowded West

Sounds just like Brock on the neck single coil of my Epiphone S-600 (strat copy) on
a fender clean amp. Standard tuning.

(1st time only)

Pre-Chorus (?This truckers atlas roads the ways??)

Strum patterns are obvious (listen to the song), here are the 3 chords (they?re just
octaves). You can add a fuller sound by leaving the low E open and letting it ring.

Post-Chorus (?Do you speak the lingo??)

This is the easiest part of the song. Just improvise w/ hammering on and bending the
2nd frets on the low E and A strings until it sounds right? something like this

A-----------------------0p2^2^--------------------
E--0-0-0h2p0h2p0-------------------------------

Outro

Just improvise on the theme, that?s all the band does.
