Intro: At the beginning, Trey seems to just plays alterations of Em, and holds them for 4 measures each while Fishman plays lays down a groove. Em
E-------------0--------|-------------0------|
B-------------0--------|-------------0------|
G-------------0--------|-------------0------|
D-------------2--------|-------------6------|
A-------------2--------|-------------7------|
E-----12\0----0--------|-----12\0----0------|
Main Riff: This is very similar, in fact, the same as the main riff in Weekapaug Grove. This is how I think Trey plays it, and it sounds pretty close.
Em D/F# A
E-------------7-------------7---|-----------------------------|
B-------------8----7---h8---8---|----7---7------10------------|
G-------------9----7---h9---9---|----7---7------9-------------|
D-------------9----7---h9---9---|----7---7------7-------------|
A-------------7--------h7---7---|----9----------x-------------|
E-----12/0----------------------|---------------9-------------|
On the album version Trey plays something like this between the verses, but live this section is mainly improvised.
E-----------12---------------------
B-----------12----12h14--12--------
G-----------12----12h14--12--------
D---(14)-14----14-----------14----- x4

Steal away before the dawn Riff:

The high chord after "before I could think twice"
E|----17/!-------
B|----16/!-------
G|----14/!-------
D|---------------
A|---------------
E|---------------
"The flesh from Satan's dog..." part is D - A - C – G
Starting at "give the director" these chords ensue in these voicings~ E A D/F# A
E-----x-----x--------------x-----------------------
B-----9-----10------7------10----------------------
G-----9-----9-------7------9-----------------------
D-----9-----7-------7------7-----------------------
A-----7-----x-------9------x-----------------------
E-----------9--------------9-----------------------
these chords continue until the stops which occur on the D/F# right after both "dissector"'s, then continue through "whatever you do
take care of your shoe", then it goes back to the between verse funky fill riff before this lick
