Shes Gone - The Brian Jonestown Massacre
Tuning: Open C, C G C G C E
Note: based on a many live performances from BJM last USA tour this year. This song is so hard to complete
in 100% right way, because for this you need three guitars and a lot of effects and play technique. But with
this guide you can free play this song for yourself. Its fun.
Note #2: tune your guitar into open C.
Note #3: words on album version and live performances its different someplace, but its ok. "Its a conceptual
art" (c) Anton Newcombe.
Note #4: i think Anton and Ryan playing same parts in this song, besides Anton doing solo parties sometime.
You will see this rhythm part and a bit of solo in this guide. Other guitarist, Ricky Maymi, is playing A, D
chords with capo on 4th fret in default tuning with six string guitar (actually all guitars in this song is
six string).

So its repeating many times in all solos in this song. Just try jam with it and you get right way.
