This song makes Basket Case seem like a slow waltz. I minimally censored some of the lyrics, even though we all know what they are. Standard tuning Chords: B: 7-9-9-*-*-* G: 3-5-5-*-*-* F#: 2-4-4-*-*-* A: 5-7-7-*-*-* E: *-7-9-9-*-* A#: 6-8-8-*-*-* ***Note*** Almost the entire song is played with up and down super-strumming, unless otherwise noted Intro: B G F# x4 Pre-verse: B A E B B A E A A A# B Verse:

^B Your rise^A and fall,^E back up a^Bgainst the wall ^B What goes a^Around is coming b^Eack and haunting ^Byou ^B It's time^A to quit,^E cause you ain't ^Bworth the sh*t ^B Under my ^Ashoes or the ^Episs on the ^Bground

Chorus: (down strumming, then up-down, then down)

^ANo one loves you and you know it Don't pretend that you enjoy i^Et, or you don't ^Bcare! ^ACause now I wouldn't lie or tell you all the things you want to ^A#hear. Cause I hate ^Byou!^A ^E x4

Pre-verse Verse 2: I heard your stick, sucked on that cancer stick A throbbing tumor and a radiation high Sh*t out of luck, and now your time is up It brings me pleasure just to know you're gonna die Chorus Interlude: (play intro part over these lyrics) Dick-head, f*ck-fuce, cock-smoking, mother-f*cking, Asshole, dirty twat, waste of semen, I hope you die.... Bridge: A A# B Verse 3: Red eye, code blue, I'd like to strangle you And watch your eyes bulge right out of your skull When you go down, head first into the ground I'll stand above you just to piss on your grave Chorus Outro: just play the pre-verse once Tabbed by Adam Oystreck (aoystreck@geocities.com) 4/27/98
