CALYPSO by SPIDERBAIT. From IVY AND THE BIG APPLES Transcribed by Simon Francis Any comments you want to give me contact me at: francisn@ca.com.au I've only just learnt how to play this and I love the riff at the start. It's got a totally different sound to what's on any of their earlier albums. There a two bits that I don't know (one unfortunately is the chorus). riff 1 (x6, I think) |----0----------2----------0----------2--------------| |------2----------3----------0----------3------------| |--2-----2----2-----2----1-----1----2-----2----------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| |----------------------------------------------------| riff 2 (x3) |----------------------------------------------------| |----2----2----5----5----7----7----9-----------------| |----2----2----5----5----7----7----9-----------------| |----2----2----5----5----7----7----9-----------------| |--------------3----3----5----5----7-----------------| |----------------------------------------------------| The next bit is played just before the chorus just once.
