xThere is a sad lack of Longpigs songs outside of the popular ones such as on and on and
said. Hopefully, I can start to plug a few gaps. In the snow in my opinion is one of the
things ever to have came from the longpigs and is a fitting album finale.
Most of the picking is based loosely around the root chords, I'm not transcribing it
as you can get some nice effects by changing the odd note now and then. Hopefully, you
find the chords accurate though.

Verse Pattern 2:
In your eyes is a dead and blue little nerve
Is it minding its business
Or is it all you care about

I hope you never know (jump from it always)
Like a razor in the snow
