C’MON
FROM SOUNDS OF TURNIPS
Transcribed by Adam Morris
This has got to be the most UNpumpkinesque
song I have heard by SP, but it is a GREAT
song. Very STPish I reckon.
Standard Tuning
INTRO is is a relatively slow slide down from
the 12th fret on the low E-string
Main Riff (Played with strong palm muting later)

|-0–0-0–7–10~~–0-7-10~–0–0-0-7h10-6~~-0-0-0-53—–|
Replace this 0 with a 6 each 2nd time played.
CHORUS

|-2–2–2/5-5/7-7-7–2–2–5–5–5-5–0————-|
I can’t remember which of these parts comes next in
the song, but they are here any way 🙂
There is a solo in here somewhere that I don’t know
sorry…Randy??
Anyway..the part out of the solo is this:
(very similar to the end part of Drown I
might add!
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|–7~~~~~~—-2~~~~—/5~~~—–2~~~~————–|
|—————————————————-|
Then this is repeated a fair few times.
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|–97/9-9——————————————-|
|–97/9-9—7-8-9-10/12—————————–|
|–75/7-7—7-8-9-10/12—————————–|
|———-0-5-6-7–8/10–0————————–|
Then the part that sounds like it is dying.
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|–9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9———|
|–9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9-x-9———|
|–7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7———|
|–7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7-x-7———|
Then back to the fast sort of bit above.
Then goes to this bit a couple of times.
|—————————————————-|
|——–7b-(hold) r———-7b-r——————-|
|–9–9—————–9–9———7-/-9~~~~~——|
|–9–9—————–9–9————————-|
|–7–7—————–7–7————————-|
|—————————————————-|
This leads into the really SNAZZY bit.
With lots of palm muting.
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|—————————————————-|
|—7p5———————–6———————-|
|——–7p6p53-3–0-3-5-6-7————————|
Then the above riff changes to this slower riff.
|—————————————————|
|—————————————————|
|—————————————————|
|————–7-9———————————-|
|–5–/7–/8-9-5-7———————————-|
|–3–/5–/6-7————————————–|
Apart from the solo and some other lead parts that is
the whole song.
Corrections can most likely be made.
