"COME CLOSER" - Chickenfoot
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: Slimsaidi
Tuning: STANDARD
INTRO:
"Sidewalk blind, an old tin cup,
Lookin down I can't look up
Long gone ain't comin back
It's later than I want it to be
And long cold nights without much sleep
Miss you babe
Come closer...

You gotta run downtown
You gotta jump online
Got something goin all the time
Where you goin baby?
Got kids bringin in problems
We got problems of our own
I'm worried babe
Bout goin the distance...

A guitar, a song, and a sleeping bag
The moon, the stars, that's all we had
I sure miss that babe
You got your space
And I got mine
Got nothing to say most all the time
Feel you slippin away

SOLO!
Note: Joe Satriani is using an octave pedal here, but I don't know whether he's playing
the lower octave and combining it with an octave higher on the pedal, or playing the
solo on the higher octave and combining the pedal at an octave lower...or maybe he's
doing something else and I'm just wrong :/ haha. But I figured this out by ear to sound
like the
same effect as the solo if you blend it with an octave down:
