Ice Cold Ice
by Husker Du
Track 5 on "Warehouse:
Songs and Stories" and
Track 5 on "The Living
End"

Tabbed by Ben Hollis

If you've heard this song
you will already know
that you need to use as
much gain/fuzz/whatever
as you've got.  Don't
worry too much about
the tabbed bits in
the verses, the sludge
should cover them up.
All the chords are fifths,
let ring where
appropriate.  At many
points in the song
you can play either
single notes or chords
depending upon what
you fancy.  If you're
playing as a band
the bassist can play the
root and the guitarist
the fifth if you want to
be lazy.
I've tabbed this in
normal tuning, but drop D
may make it (even) easier.

If you want to do an
acoustic (!) version of
this the full chords are
Am, Bbmaj, Cmaj, Dm,
Fmaj, Gmaj, instead of
fifths

Chorus (variation)
This time round don't play
the G5 riff twice,
play it once then go to
a D5 chord and let
the notes ring out:

      G5                              G5

D--5-5-5-------------------5-5-5-
A--5-5-5-3-5-7-5-3-5---5-5-5-
E--3-3-3-------------------3-3-3-

     D5

D----7----7----7-
A--5----5---5----
E------------------

Hang around on the D chord
for a few bars, then
go to the middle bit

Middle

F5   D5   F5  D5  F5  D5

G5 (pick scrape)

(if you are playing in drop D
play the lowest F5 and D5
you can)

Verse (only x2 this time, not x4)
Pre-Chorus
Chorus (x8) (from the
third time onward stick in a short
solo - although it should be
barely audible through the
dirt)

End on G5
