Beck- Devils Haircut
tabbed by evil elf tamer.

Ok, the song is played tuned a half step down.  You can play the main
riff in standard tuning, but the solo wont work cause it has to be
half step down.  Anyways, I'd like to thank M. Burgess for making the
the solo and lyrics from another tab of his that I used, and 
J. Ellis for the bass line.  Have fun!

^ - bend half step


main riff- (intro x4)
e------------------------------
B------------------------------
G------------------------------
D------------------------------
A------------5-----------------  you can also
E----0----0-5------------------  play it on the third fret
 but it sounds better on the 5th
I saw another tab that played it like:

A----5----5-3-- But if you really listen,
E----------3----the tone goes down to up, not up to down

Verse: bass plays this lick through the entire verse,
restarting about the middle of the sentence or line

G-----------------
D--------0--------
A------0----------
E--0--0-----------
Somethings wrong cause my mind is fading,
And everywhere I look theres a dead end waiting
Temeratures dropping at the rotten oasis
Stealing kisses from the leperous faces

main riff x4, with the base still playing the first three,
but stopping on fourth

Heads are hanging from the garbage man trees
Mouthwash jukebox gasoline
Pistols are pointing at a poor man's pockets
Smiling eyes ripping out of his sockets

short pause, base playing the same lick twice, same pace
it continues through the chorus-

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

bass stops playing*
insert solo, with what seems like a harmonica with
a distortion effect on it in the backround


e---------------0---------------------------
B-3----3----3-0---3-0-----------------------
G---------------------0-2^---2-----2-2p0---0
D---------------------------------------2---
A-------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------

*bass starts playing at very very start of the 
first sentence of next verse

Love machines on the sympathy crutches
Discount orgies on the dropout buses
Hitching a ride with the bleeding noses
Coming to town with the brief case blues

*bass keeps playing the same lick twice on short brake
and continues through chorus

Got a devil's haircut, in my mind
Got a devil's haircut, in my mind
Got a devil's haircut, in my mind
Got a devil's haircut, in my mind

*bass stops playing during brake, but
starts on first sentence of next verse

Somethings wrong cause my mind is fading
Ghetto-blasting decinegrating
Rock and roll, know what I'm saying
And everywhere I look theres a devil waiting

*bass continues through drum solo and next chorus

(drum solo)

Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind

*bass stops playing while the same solo i showed
you above plays again
play main riff 9 times, with the bass playing
10 times, 1 after the main riff stops

(with voice effect)-
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
Got a devil's haircut in my mind
