Subject: Chords to I AM HYDROGEN by PHISH


I’m not an incredible guitarist, but it doesn’t take
all that much to sit down and figure out the
tabs to a song.  Here is my interpretation of one of
my favorite Phish tunes, I am Hydrogen.

        I AM HYDROGEN         by PHiSH
        -------------         --------
F: 132211
B: 113331


After a few bars of alternating between the chords F
and B ...

    B                       F

E-----10--------10-8--------8-----------------------|
B---------------------11-10----11--10-8-------------|
G--10-------10---------------------------10---------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|

   B                         F

E-----10--------10-8------------------|
B---------------------11-10-----------|
G-----------10---------------10-------|
D-------------------------------------|
A-------------------------------------|
E-------------------------------------|

The above repeats a couple of times before going onto
this:

     B                           F
E----(8)-10----8-10-13----10-13-15----13-15-17------|
B---------------------------------------------------|
G--10-----------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|
          B                    F
E--15-17-18----17-18-20-18-17-13--------------------|
B---------------------------------------------------|
G---------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|


Then back to the first part a couple more times

After that, it goes something like this :

E----(8)-10----8-10-8-------10--------10-13-12-13---|
B---------------------11-10--------10---------------|
G-10------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|

E-15-13-12-10-13-12-10------------------------------|
B----------------------13---------------------------|
G---------------------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------------|

Then comes a bunch of ascending scales alternating
between Paige and Trey, but I couldn’t get those down.
After that, the final chord that separates I Am
Hydrogen from Weekapaug is an F Chord, I think
