"Dirty to the Bone"

I don't think I mentioned this here, but one of my musical projects for 2018 is to figured out at least one part for every song on Alone in the Universe.  Yester-day I figured out some parts for "Dirty to the Bone" and discovered an interesting feature.

There's a repeating guitar phrase that's something like:

And so on.

The title phrase ("dirty to the bone") is sung to this musical phrase:

These two parts consist of the same three pitches (G, B, and C), which gives the song some cohesion.

That the title phrase descends also gives a musical impression of going to the very core or - as the song puts it - "to the bone."
