BAND : Sonic Youth
ALBUM : Goo
SONG : Dirty Boots
The correct tunage is EEBBEF# for Lee
and EGDGED for Thurston
The following tab is in normal tunage (EADGBE) cause i didn't
want to loose all my strings!
Some parts missing so please send me comments and corrections
or evenmore the correct transcription as soon as possible.

*************************************************************
Start playing Figure 1 and then Figure 2
and after,when Thurston start singing,keep
playing Figure 3 during the following verses :
C5 D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
Here we go to another candle i know
D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
all the girls there playing on a jelly roll
D#5 A#5 C#5 C5
The following part is missing :
time to take a ride
time to take it in a midnight eye
and if you wanna go
get on below
pinking out the day
dreaming out the crazy way
finger on the love
it's all above
Repeat Figure 3 again with :
everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck
a satellite wish will make it just enough
you be making out with a witch in a coffee truck
The following part is missing too :
time to rock the road
and tell the story of the jelly rollin
dirty boots are on
hi de ho
pinking out the black
dreamin' in a crack
satan got her tongue
now it's undone
Then play Figure 2 with :
i got some dirty boots
yeah dirty boots
i got some dirty boots
baby
dirty boots
hey!
After the "noisy-solo" is Figure 4 & Figure 5
and finally Thurston is playing Figure 6.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP, representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are "hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the official SONIC YOUTH tablature which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route. These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the NY Times Article. We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
