Elastica - Never Here

Transcribed by Ben Hollis

The song works around a
repeating 4 bar bassline which
is just played on the A string

  1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
  B       A       D       E

D--------------------------------
A-2-------0-------5-------7------
E--------------------------------

The ?chorus? follows a different
pattern

For much of the song the lead guitar
Plays a one note pattern which is
The note b played at the fourth fret
Of the g string.  Every so often
Just striking muted strings for a
Grinding sound.
