what's the lead guitar during the verses?

i found some site that said like fret 8 on the g string and then a 9 every so often (when you listen to the song it's easy to work out timings), but on this new live dvd it looks like he's play some sort of barre chord, on the 6th fret and then 7th so i guess it's D# and E again like the previous notes. but i can't see what his other fingers are doing. i had a few goes at different arrangements but it didn't seem to sound right (the single nots on the G string sounds good enough though)

anyone know what it is, or at least what he's doing in that gig?

could it be this?

e-----
b--7--
g-----
d-----
a--6--
e-----

That's a total guess and I have not the song, guitar, nor DVD in front of me.

wait, maybe i didn't explain myself properly.

his barre-ing finger is over the 6th fret mostly, and then goes up to the 7th every so often, with the other fingers forming the chord in the same position. it must be some time of A chord, because then that would agree with the d# and e notes that the other tab was giving.

btw, i think he's using just two fingers to form the chord. ie. on the 6th fret, his index is barring over the 6th fret, middle and ring finger somewhere on the 7th and 8th, i think.

sorry, it really isn't that important, so don't worry. it would be interesting to see what someone thinks though.

I know what you mean. And that chord I listed is totally wrong. ha.

I'm retabbing some pixies songs so I'll do that song as well.
