 ==solo


 like I usually say, since J improvises every solo, you should try


 as well, but here's a go at what's on the record:


 


 

 
 E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B|--------------------------7----7-7\5---------------------------------------------------------|
 G|--4-h5/7p5-4h5/9\7~~---/9----9-------7-7/9--7-\4-0---0h2p0--4p0--5p4--0-4--2p0-2p0-----------|
 D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------4-5-4--2--|
 A|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2--|
 E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------0--|
 E|-12---12--12--12--12--12-----------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B|-15b--15b-15b-15b-15b-15b--15~~----------------------------------------------------------------|
 G|---------------------------------0-0--7-0-0-7-0-7/9-7--7-7-7-7\5-4-5/7-5-4-5-4-----------------|
 D|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------5-5/7-----5-----|
 E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------8-7---5\3-|

 


 


 then when the solo ends it's just A and F again, like so (use wah on the muted strums):


 


 

 
 E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 B|-1--1-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-1--1-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-1-1-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-1-1--1-1--1-1--1-1-1-1-1-1-|

 D|-2--2---------------3--3---------------2-2---------------3-3--3-3--3-3--3-3-3-3-3-3-|
 A|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
 E|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

 


 


 repeat x4, then:


 (wah)


 

 
 E|------------------------------0--|
 B|-1----------------------------1--|
 G|-2-(hold, slow tremelo dip)------|
 D|-2-------------------------------|
 A|---------------------------------|
 E|---------------------------------|

 


 


 


 then repeat verse and chorus as necessary. enjoy!

 Dinosaur Jr. - Yeah We Know
 
 [---] 
 Really under-rated song off one of the best Dino albums, IMO. They don't seem to
 play much stuff off
 Bug anymore except for a couple like Budge occasionally (and obviously Freak Scene), so I was
 surprised to see a video of J + The Fog doing this one live, which is the basis for most of
 this tab (so it's got to be mostly correct, i'm sure).
 
 There's a bit of wah usage here and there, not really a problem though if you don't have
 one since it's not too heavily used. (though if you do have one, it should be easy enough to
 hear where. it's hard to tab wah pedal movement..)
 
 There's slight variations on the stuff below throughout the song, so don't expect perfect
 results if you just stick to what you see here. If you've heard the song a few times before
 you'll know where it all goes though :)
