Thought we could use a little more Austin artists 'round here.
Ian uses his old strat through a wah and some very heavy distortion.

that's how Ian plays it, but I play it a little differently; just feels a
little more natural.

that's the riff he plays all through the tune. you can figure out the
little wah fills; they're pretty basic blues licks. he also plays the same
lick in A, so just move it up a string. during the verses it's lightly palm
muted.
lyrics:
hey look at me now
high wire trapeze, no net beneath
i'm the one that you should know
come let me grope you
just let me know
smile - collect my disease
just give me a smile
cause you sure are pretty
i feel so strong
you could be mine (whispered - wouldn't that be nice)
so have another drink (pause - ahhhhhhhhhh)
and i'll give you pity
just one more drink and you'll be mine
you'll be mine
smile - collect my disease
it does as it please
your flesh your lips your skin
the life you hold within
dizzy i'll twist your round
crazy i'll pull you down
so sweet i'll taste your sin
on down i'll pull you in
make you mine
that's it. if you don't own this album, change that.
