 Song: Pink Steam
 Artist: Sonic Youth
 Album: Rather Ripped
 Tabbed by: Mark Wood (scopesAThotmail.co.uk)
 
 Guitar I - Thurston
 Guitar II - Lee
 
 Both guitars are tuned E Standard for this tab. However the guitars
 are tuned to DD#A#D#GG on the album and when played live.
 
 Most of Lee's (Guitar II) parts have distortion and lots of reverb and most of
 Thurston's (Guitar I) have mild distortion. I'm not 100% sure on who plays what
 parts but I've done my best to figure it out, it sounds pretty close but email
 me or leave a comment if you have any suggestions or anything you think doesn't
 sound right.
 
 Edited some parts and the end solo because they didn't sound perfect ;D
 
 Key
 [-----]h - hammer-on
 p - pull-off
 b - bend
 r - release bend
 ~ - vibrato
 t - tremolo
 / - slide up (from/to)
 \ - slide down (from\to)
 x2 - play twice
