Transcription to "Asthmatic" by Spineshank
From the Album "The Height of Callousness" <---Kick ass album
 by Stephen Ragsdale (ragsdale@hcis.net)
ICQ - 19504166

This is the way I play this song.  I find it to be pretty
accurate.  If you have corrections or questions or anything,
please feel free to email or ICQ me.
I've become motivated to tab out most of this album, so you
can expect more from "The Height of Callousness" soon.

Tuning

Low to High
A E A D G B

(note some may find it easier to tune to Bb rather than A, if that
is the case, then you need to take each note and drop it a number)

Pre Chorus again

Chorus (what I consider the Chorus)

B------------------------------------------
G------------------------------------------
D------------------------------------------
A--1-3-3-3-3-1-3-1--1-4-4-4-4-1-4-1------3-
E--1-3-3-3-3-1-3-1--1-4-4-4-4-1-4-1------3- <- end on this note
A--1-3-3-3-3-1-3-1--1-4-4-4-4-1-4-1------3-

The next part is basically just sound effects, but you could
play something like this

B-----------------------------------------
G-----------------------------------------
D-----------------------------------------
A--3-3-3-4-4-4-6-6------------------------
E-----------------------------------------
A-----------------------------------------

After that, just use different rythmns based on these chords

D-----------------------------------------
A--3---4---6------------------------------
E--3---4---6------------------------------
A--3---4---6------------------------------

Repeat Chorus
Repeat a few more riffs above


THERE YOU GO,  an awesome song that is very easy and fun to play

Although Jonny says you can Download the CD off napster, go buy
the son of a bitch to support Spineshank cause they are an awesome
band and if you want them to continue being musicians, you should
support them.
