I'm up and I can take what you give and I'm here

(Lick 2)
but I don't want you to live with me

(Lick 1)
'cause all I want is a taste for free

I'm down and I will drag you along and around
until you burst into song and unwind
and leave your new life behind for a while

Taste Jam Ending (Live version)

From: Jason Perdue <Jasonmaj7@earthlink.net> 

Trey plays a spooky riff to finish off the jam

E--17---14-15-17-18--18--18--17-15-14-------14-14-15--15-15-15
B---------------------------------------17--------------------
G-------------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------------

E--14---------------------------------------------------------
B-----15------------------------------------------------------
G--------14---------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------------

Trey then does some quick fingering to finish out the measure which 
is pretty much improvised.  This sounds close.

(improvised)

E--------------------14------------14---------------------14---15
B--------13-15-13--------15-13--------15-13------13-14-15----15--
G-13-14-----------14------------14-----------14---------------
D-------------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------------

Next either go back into riff I or bring it home with... 

riff II

   A   F#m      G       C   D   Bm       G        E        A
E-------------------------------7-----------------------------
B-----------------------5---7------7-7-7-8--8-8-8-9--9-9-9-10-

           F#           G            C            D    Bm G C
E-------------------------------------------------------------
B-10-10-10-11--11-11-11-12--12-12-12-13--13-13-13-15--(hold)--
G-------------------------------------------------------------
D-------------------------------------------------------------
A-------------------------------------------------------------
E-------------------------------------------------------------

Next you have one of three choices    
a) repeat riff I with improv
b) repeat riff II
c) my favorite, riff III

riff III 

pick as fast as you can

   ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
