Jam Notes:

 The jam in in Eb Mixolydian which is the notes of the Ab Major scale, starting on the  Eb. You'll want to emphasize

the chord tones in an Eb chord while soloing... so Eb, G, Bb. Trey also likes to use the  flat 2 (Fb) and sharp 5 (B natural)

to create some nice simple tension. Try to resolve resolve the Fb to the root Eb. And  try to resolve the sharp 5 to the 5th Bb.

Lyrics:

Timing is everything, that much I know.

sometimes I'm fast(er) and sometimes I'm slow

I exceed expectations but some days I'm told

to go to the end of the line.

But when I can't be what's expected of me

I look at the clock and say this can't be

watching it pass without reason or rhyme

I find myself drifting in time

(Repeat replacing last line with)

I see the vultures moving in (repeat)

(Fish repeats some phrases in here: "I find myself drifting in time")

Then Instead of going to the C# go to D# and do a D# C# progression

and this is the jam part. When done jamming the guitar and band

goes back to the D# C# progression again for three times (not four)
