Eels - 3 Speed tab

Eels
3-Speed
From Electro-Shock Blues


This is a song that I love but I've never seen a convincing tab of online.

Standard tuning EADGBe

CAPO AT 7TH FRET - chords are transposed (i.e. first chord I've named C is strictly a G)

           EADGBe

C       -  x3201x
C*      -  x32013 (during the solo)
Gsus/B  -  x2001x
Gsus/B* -  x20013 (during the solo)
F       -  xx321x
G       -  xx000x (sometimes sounds like xx0003)
Am      -  x0221x
D5      -  xx023x (sometimes sounds like Dm xx0231 or D xx0232)


This is a beautiful plaintively strummed song that mostly only uses the middle 4 strings 
the guitar, although

around and during the solo section it sounds like he lets the high e string ring out

occasionally, as shown above. Listen to the record and see what you think.

During solo:

C*    Gsus/B*  (repeat 4 times)

(the solo can be played a few ways, I think it's on the G and B strings. I may add this later)
