PATIENT
The TAB transcriptions were created using my program for composing TAB files,
TAB MASTER (I know it's a stupid name but I'm Israeli and that's the way we
do things).
I'm afraid there are no 'actual' chords on most of this song, but rather
some right hand finger work, which is very easy (Hey! He does that on stage,
you know... ;-)  )
I think it is very accurate, as long as you consider that he plays it
differently on every live performance, and believe me I've been listening
to about 7 or more performances of the song when transcribing it.
This sign, on the 'doctor' section: "-----l(5)---" means left-hand muting:
this sound should be played as the left hand doesn't fully hold the string
down to the neck, so the sound is short and percussive. Exact timing is
described by the numbers above the TAB. Note that there are two rhythm
meters - 6/8 on the verse, and 4/4 on the "doctor" section.
Enjoy! Your comments are welcome.

  The same as section 2
Fatal convalescence, the wound
becomes a weal:
the poison is in essence just
the virus of the real.
But there's sympathetic healing,
the power of the soul, bandages,
concealing all that we can't control, all that we can't control.
