Song: "Raspberry" by "I Mother Earth"
Album: "Scenery And Fish"(1996)

This is I MOTHER EARTH'S forth single off the album "Scenery and fish"
It's an interesting song because it uses so many different interludes 
and patterns (There's 3 bridges!). Something this good could only come
from an incredible band like I MOTHER EARTH.


Intro/Verse: (Clean sound)
E--------------|-----------------|--------------------------------------
B-5/-7--7--7-7-|-----------------|-5/-7--7--7-7--7777-9-99-10-1010-9-9-9
G-6/-8--8--8-8-|-4-44--6-66-44-4-|-6/-8--8--8-8--8888-9-99/11-1111-9-9-9

E--------------|-0-00--0-00-00-0-|--------------------------------------

End it off by holding this:
E-----
B--9--
G--9--
D-----
A--7--
E-----

Pre-chorus: (Medium dist.)   1/4              
E----------------------|----------------------------
B----------------------|----------------------------
G-11/-131313-11-13-13--|--1919^--14-14--13-1313-13--
D----------------------|----------------------------
A--9/-111111--9-11-11--|--1717^--12-12--11-1111-11--
E--0---0-0-0--0--0--0--|---0-0----0--0---0--0-0--0--
*Repeat until chorus

Chorus:
E---------------------------|------------------------------
B--9--9---7-7---6--6-6-6-6--|------------------------------
G--9--9---7-7---6--6-6-6-6--|------------------------------
D--9--9---7-7---6--6-6-6-6--|--6--6--7-7--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--
A--7--7---5-5---4--4-4-4-4--|--6--6--7-7--9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9--
E---------------------------|--4--4--5-5--7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7--

Outro 1:
E----------------|-------
B----------------|-------
G----------------|-------
D---------4------|-------Bass Fill...
A---------4-HOLD-|-------
E--4h5p4--2------|--3-2--

Repeat the verses and chorus as nessesary.  However on the
second outro, it is slightly changed.

Outro 2:
E----------------|--------------------------
B----------------|-------------00000000000--
G----------------|-------------00000000000--
D---------4------|----------3---------------
A---------4-HOLD-|----------3---------------
E--4h5p4--2------|--3-x-2-x-1---------------

Bridge 1:
E-----------|------------
B-----------|------------
G-----------|------------
D-----------|------------
A--1-1-111--|--3-3-3333--
E--0-0-000--|--1-1-1111--

Repeat this twice. On the C.D there is a long interlude guitar solo
which is rather unnessary because it's not heard on the single or
video so I'm going to leave it out.

Bridge 2: (Sustained reverb)
  "Explosions from...the goldfish bowl"
E---------|---------------|---------|-------------
B---------|---------------|---------|-------------
G--9/-12--|--9/-12--7/-9--|--9/-12--|--9/-12--11--
D---------|---------------|---------|-------------
A--7/-10--|--7/-10--5/-7--|--7/-10--|--7/-10---9--
E---------|---------------|---------|-------------

INTERLUDE:
This is where I get messed up. I know this part is wrong, but it's
pattern fits. The C.D. just sounds like a bunch of random notes in
a blues scale.
E--------------------|------------------
B--------------------|------------------
G--------------------|------------------
D------2p0--------3--|----2p0--------3--
A------------0-023---|----------0-023---
E--0-0-----3---------|--0-----3---------

Keep repeating until there is a sudden change which I think
goes like this:

E---------------|----------------------
B---------------|----------------------
G---------------|----------------------
D---------------|------7--7-7--7-------
A----5--5-5-5---|-78/9---9-9-9--9-8-8--
E--7---7-7-7-7--|----------------------

Repeat the Pre-chorus and then chorus and then the outro is
again altered.

Outro 3:
E------------|------------------|------------|-------------
B------------|------------------|------------|-------------
G------------|------13119-11-9--|------------|-------------  FADE OUT
D---------4--|-------------9-7--|---------4--|----------3-(Keep holding)
A---------4--|------11-97-------|---------4--|----------3--
E--4h5p4--2--|--3-2--0-00--0-0--|--4h5p4--2--|--3-x-2-x-1--

Thats about it. Most of it is pretty accurate. Except for the
interlude. Have fun with it!

Any comments?
