Belew s part

Clean guitar on down-beats (let ring throughout).

At this next 4/4 section Belew "echoes" Fripp by playing this on the off-beats
(one eighth note behind Fripp).
I will call these two lines Belew figure 2. The bracketed part will be referred to later
in the song.

|161814161214|10|
|171513151113|911|
|||
|||
|||
|||
Repeat Belew figure 1, but shift back half a beat to echo Fripp s down-beats.
Then repeat Belew figure 2, substituting this for the bracketed measure:
|10|
|119|
||
||
||
||
Then play this line on the down beats to lead into the next section.
||
|16181416121410|
|161412141012810|
||
||
||
Next is the part where the song really kicks in. Belew and Fripp are in sync
rhythmically and Fripp is harmonizing Belew s part. The rhythm is alternating
measures of 6/8 and 7/8, but you will have to listen to time the guitar part correctly.
This is what Belew plays.

Belew playing on the down-beats.
