ROTARY ELEVEN (B-side to "Losing My Religion")


This has sort of a "swing feel"--it's in 12/8.  I'm going to transcribe it in
4/4 because I feel like it.  If you have no idea what I mean, listen to the
tape.

Stupid Notational Things:
\_/ = tie               h   = hammer-on
X   = tenth fret        p   = pull-off
E   = eleventh fret     s/  = slide up
T   = twelfth fret
