Modest Mouse- Dramamine Guitar tab: By: Logan Camsky Key: w = use whammy ++ = when two plus symbols are surrounding a number use a natural harmonic w++w = use whammy after you get a natural harmonic ringing / = slide h = hammer on p = pull off ~ = let note ring before moving on, listen to song for timing ********ALL of the whammy bends in this song are UP BENDS to a higher note, Listen to the song to get it right*************** Let it be known I used several other tabs to help create this one, Not exact replicas but similar. I think it sounds perfect, and if you don't… well, go write your own or something. Anyway here you go: Intro: (Bass)transposed for 6 string electric in standard tuning ( this plays throughout the entire song)

around the middle of the song somewhere and continues for awhile and then go's back to the first one. e|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

E|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| Cool sound Isaac does with harmonic and tremolo whammy bar, sorry for those of you without a trem you won't be able to get this right; by the way he bends up by just pressing on his floating tremolo bridge, he doesn't use a whammy bar, but you can if you'd like.(Listen to song to get the number of whammy bends right with each note): e|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| B|---w+5+w--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
