At times it seems like Ace just pieced these songs together in the studio from riffs he had lying around. The very cool rhythmic shift here (there are about five of them actually) comes courtsey of Anton Fig on the drums, the rhythm guitars just play the same thing throughout. Also listen closely fpr the two guitars that appear towards the end. One plays Rhy. Fig with a heavy dose of flanger (and probably a little phaser) and the other (panned slightly to the right) plays a few lead fills. There is also a guitar running through the song that plays percussive muted notes through a wah-wah. Naturally, it's not notated here. Just wing it. Key: / = slide up \ = slide down b = bend (whole step) b^ = bend (1/2 step) b^^ = bend (1 1/2 steps) pb = pre-bend r = release-bend t = tap with righthand finger h = hammer-on p = pull-off ~ = Vibrato * = Natural Harmonic #(#) = Trill ** = Artificial Harmonic x = Dead notes (no pitch) P.M. = Palm mute (- -> underneath indicates which notes) (\) = Dive w\bar (/) = Release w\bar Tp = Tap w\plectrum

Out! [Rhy. Fig 1] [Rhy. Fig 2a] (2x) [Rhy. Fig 2b w/ Rhy. Fig 3b] (2x) I went to a party, just so smartly, cool as cool could be I knew I could make it, knew I could shake it, lose some fancy free [Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 2b] (2x) So I went to the table and reached for a bottle And poured me a glass of wine Took a few sips and looked around, I was feelin' fine [Rhy. Fig 2b w/ Rhy. Fig 3b] (2x) But an hour along, comin' on strong, I was gettin' drunk The next thing I knew I looked at you, I was blind as a skunk, [Rhy. Fig 4] Ohh, Ohh, Ohh.... I was [Rhy. Fig 5 (4x) w/ Rhy. Fig 6] [Rhy. Fig 5] (4x) I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out [Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 3a] (2x) [Rhy. Fig 2b w/ Rhy. Fig 3b] (2x) Through the smoke-filled room I caught your eye And I think that you caught mine And I knew in a minute or maybe less, it was just a matter of time [Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 3a] (2x) Then you started to move with such a groove, stronger than sneakin' slow Then you looked at me with your big blue eyes, they had such a glow [Rhy. Fig 2b w/ Rhy. Fig 3b] (2x) Then I took your hand and tried to stand and ended up sittin' back down Then you smiled at me and gave me a wink, how quick I lost my frown [Rhy. Fig 4] Ohh, Ohh, Ohh.... I was [Rhy. Fig 5 (4x) w/ Rhy. Fig 6] [Rhy. Fig 5] (4x) I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out [Solo over Rhy. Fig 5] (2x) [Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 3a] (2x) [Rhy. Fig 2b w/ Rhy. Fig 3b] (2x) So I looked at you and then I knew that we were gonna have some fun So I thought to myself, why was I wishin' I'd switched on rum [Rhy. Fig 2a w/ Rhy. Fig 3a] (2x) So when I went light 'n burned, we flew to another place I pretty soon we were in some moon steps, miles out of space [Rhy. Fig 2b w/ Rhy. Fig 3b] (2x) The room was turnin', we were burnin', things became a haze It seemed that already I had too many, firewater caused the blaze [Rhy. Fig 4] Ohh, Ohh, Ohh.... I was [Rhy. Fig 5 (4x) w/ Rhy. Fig 6] [Rhy. Fig 5] (repeat and fade) I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out [Rhy. Fig 7] (until fade) I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out [Riff 1] I was wiped out, I had my lights out Was fallin' right out, 'cos I was wiped out [fade out]
