And HERE's where they go:

[B]I know [A]you'll [D/A]like what's on [A]my m[B]ind,

[B]I know [A]it e[D/A]ats you up [A]insi[B]de,

[B]I know [A]you k[D/A]now, you know, you know.

After the second "chorus", you go straight into this nifty riff. It's a

simple moving-chord-shape. I use my middle and ring fingers to do this:

Okay, I think that's it. The song's pretty repetitive. Just piece it

together from what I have here and you should be okay. There's no solo

(thank God; DeLeo's solos are a bitch to figure out 'cause they're mostly

just noise).

Corrections/comments/augmentations welcome (by email).

Good luck!

 #TAB - "Sex Type Thing" by Stone Temple Pilots
 #
 #First off, there's the signature riff of the song. The best way to play it
 #is by keeping your pinky on the 7th fret of the A string the whole time and
 #using your ring, middle, and index fingers on the rest of the notes in
 #whatever pattern is comfortable for you. But believe me, the pinky on the
 #7th fret creates a cool pedal-tone that sounds really close to the recorded
 #version. Here's the riff:
 # 
 {sot}
 E-|---------------------------||
 {eot}
 #

 B-|---------------------------||

 #

 #

 E-|-0-7-7-0-6-0-5-0-3-3-5-3-0-||
 {eot}
 #
 #Now, there's also a second guitar part played at the same time as the
 #signature riff. If you listen close you can hear it. It sounds quite a
 #bit like the following:
 # 
 {sot}
 E-|-----0-------0--------0-------0---||

 #
 #Then, when the verses come in, there's this simple, 2 chord riff. (If ya'
 #wanna get technical, I think the chords are F#5/E and F#5.) I'm not very
 #good at writing it out "in rhythm" so just listen to the song and you'll
 #get the gist of it:

 #Ah, but there's ALSO that cool ascending and descending harmonic thing,
 #right? Right. Well, all you gotta do is lightly touch the E string at
 #about the 3rd fret and pick 4 times (in rhythm) while gradually moving
 #your finger toward the 1st fret. That's the ascending harmonic part; for
 #the descending, just reverse your direction.
 # Ascending: DEscending:

 #Then, for the "chorus" ("I know you want what's on my mind..." etc.) it's
 #just standard power chords (5th's). Here's how to finger them:
 [B] [A] [D/A] 
 {sot}
 E-|---|---|---|
 B-|---|---|-3-|
 G-|-4-|-2-|-2-|
 D-|-4-|-2-|-0-|
 A-|-2-|-0-|-0-|
 E-|---|---|---|

 And HERE's where they go:

 [B]I know [A]you'll [D/A]like what's on [A]my m[B]ind,
