        Hello! I found this song tabbed by Gary Coulbourne at Nevada, but I
thought that this might be easier to play because the finger positions
are all power chords with some index finger lifting.
        I haven't practiced Gary Coulbourne's tab of Mother enough to be able
to play it up to speed and see how it sounds, so I just tabbed it myself.
        This is my first tab, so tell me what you think! And let me know
if there are any gross errors. All input welcome.

        This is most of the song minus the guitar solo (which I don't have).
        I hope this helps.

the veneration of the bear, for the bear is the suprime model--and therefore theguiding spirit--of the theme of renewal. > Shepard & Sanders "The Sacred Paw"
