Hi,
So far, this is all I have been ably to tab out from the song. It's the main riff and is repeated
through the most of the song except for the verses, it goes as such...

e|-------0-----0-----3-2-0-----
B|---3-----3-----3---------3---
G|-----2-----2-----2---------2-
D|-0---------------------------
A|-----------------------------
E|-----------------------------

e|-------0-----0-----3-2-0-----

G|-----2-----2-----2---------2-

(Had to put it twice so they would except it)

When I figure out more of the song I'll add it.

I see this song as kind of a symbol of the downfall of society. I think "the world's changin' for the worse" is a recurring theme in the hip's lyrics. The Mississippi river is a great symbol of the power of nature. In the midwest (Minnesota) it is just gorgeous. Down near New Orleans I picture it as being significantly less natural and more polluted. So it's still got a piece of that natural beauty, but it's slowly dying, and so is nature; so where's that leave our future? Is it inevitable or can something still be done? I don't know, that's just what I get out of it.

Man, I submitted this song like a year ago and it never got posted...they probably thought it was the same as 'New Orleans is Sinking'. WHatever, this song rocks - not sure what it means, but I'm fine with that!

I get a bit of that downfall of society/nature vibe too, it's all over this album. I just think that this song, as with new orleans is sinking is very eerie to listen to after katrina, I wonder if they'll write a post-katrina new orleans song.
