DINOSAUR JR. - ON THE BRINK TABS

Subject: TAB: On the Brink - Dinosaur Jr Date: Thu, 31 Aug 1995 14:54:39 -0400 (EDT) From: "Michael Gartley" <mgg3357@osfmail.isc.rit.edu> On the Brink Dinosaur Jr ------------ The point of me going through the trouble for this is that hopefully it will help someone else out with the song. I'm still learning, so hopefully someone can help me out too! Post your corrections and suggestions! I've worked out the basics of all the songs on Without a Sound, so if anyone is interested I can pound out another song. And sorry about the bad job on the lyrical transcription! He just tends to mumble sometimes. Capo on the third fret. All the chords and tab are relative to the capo. G D C D x 2 This is how I play the little G D C D progression, but I really don't think that it's the same as J plays.
