Phish - Stash
------------------------------------------------------------
Artist: Phish
Song: Stash
Album: A Picture of Nectar
Figured Out By: Cameron Schmitz and Jesse Seegers
Tabbed By: Jesse Seegers

Here it is note for note, and I figure I might as well give you how he’s set up, or
 at least how it sounds like he’s set up.  He either has a tube amp or a tube
 screamer, and really fast compression, which you can really hear in Part C.  He
 also has a little bit of feedback at the ringing out parts, so set your amp or
 whatever with some gain, but so it still sounds clean.  Enjoy!

Everything after five minutes is kind of random, and more jamming than part of the
 song.  So, you can make up what you want, and there are a lot of diminished scales
 (1, flat 3, flat 5, 6) throughout the song, so any of those will sound good.  Any
 comments, questions, or whatever, my email address is jseegers@andover.edu.

Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture Dusty Wanna Be	#1 by Dusty Delonge at Oct 28, 1973 at 12:12 PM EST
	title in mind, it seems to be the wondrous tail of a pothead and a bag of grass.

No Picture Jake Average	#2 by Jake Staley at May 23, 1974 at 1:27 PM EST
	Verse 1 Imagine a young man running from the "authorithies", and meeting up with a friend, who's leaning against a wall. He reaches in his pocket, pulls out a pipe, and knocks the ashes on to the ground. Then, in the other pocket bulls out his stash that he has gotten away with. Verse 2 A young man chasing another "authority figure" and finally catches up with him. As soon as he does, the captured one calls his parteners on his radio, who decend on the scene with swiftness. Verse 3 and 4 This verses has alternation lines on gibberish and insight. Laugh when they shoot you, say 'please dont do that', and Was it for this my life I sought....

No Picture spence Average	#3 by spence o'brien at Feb 28, 1980 at 9:40 PM EST
	When I first heard it, I thought it was about male genetalia, but now I think it's about marijuana.

No Picture Joshua Wanna Be	#4 by Joshua graham at Nov 17, 1988 at 2:31 AM EST
	I love that line "Was it for this my life I sought? - Maybe so or maybe not."

No Picture Tony Average	#5 by Tony Riemer at Feb 23, 1994 at 7:37 AM EST
	no, deadcow has it in mind :)

No Picture Nyle Average	#6 by Nyle Leddy at Mar 26, 2000 at 1:35 AM EST
	Levitator, I think it's unlikely that the viewpoint of the song changes for just that one verso to be from the view of the cop. Both verse 1 and verse 3 are obviously from the 'crooks' view, verse two likely is as well... On top of that, right after they sing "calls to his Cohorts, asleep in the trees" they start singing 'Whoh-oh-oh-oh-oh..." which rises and falls in tune like a siren, like the sound of backup on the way.

No Picture robert Average	#7 by robert liedberg at Dec 8, 2003 at 6:27 AM EST
	phlyme2themoon is dead on. as for verses 3 and 4, i think the guy got caught. the solar garlic is the weed. and he gets shot at the end of verse 3 so perhaps he thinks he's dying or going to jail and is regretting that he spent his life this way. "was it for this my life i sought?" "control for smilers can't be bought" im really not sure about. smilers are perhaps pot heads. it might be saying, that they can't pay off the cops to leave them alone.

No Picture Len Badass	#8 by Len cullum at Aug 1, 2004 at 7:12 PM EST
	This song is definatly my fave phish song. It has amazing guitar and wows me everytime I hear. Its so fresh and funky, I simply love it. I havent really decided what its about yet. I have an idea, but its impossible to verbalize.

No Picture D.J Wanna Be	#9 by D.J Mortensen at Nov 18, 2006 at 12:37 AM EST
	i think verse 1 is the fugitive running away from the cop and verse 2 is the cop catching the fugitive
