Okay, in my opinion, one of the best songs on this album. This is one of Offspring's best
album, in my opinion. "Smash" has to be their best, I must say, tho.
This is a very easy song, even the solo I did too!
A5 - (x022xx) <-- This A5 is used for the picking parts.
Cadd9 - (x32033)
Em - (022000)
G - (320033)
D5 - (x577xx)
E#5 - (x-8-10-10-x-x)
A5 - (577xxx) <-- This A5 is used in the chorus and pre.
E5 - (x799xx) <-- This E5 is used in the pre chorus.
C5 - (x355xx)
E5 - (022xxx) <-- This E5 is used in the chorus.
Intro: (Clean.I put bars in to see diff. chords) Play 4 times.

Keep picking for the verse. I'll put the chords over the lyrics.
Verse 1:
A5 Cadd9 Em G A5 Cadd9 Em G A5 Cadd9
Now I could lie, by your side. All serrated for you. Down below,
Em G A5 Cadd9 Em G A5 Cadd9 Em
cancer grows. Weeping waits inside you too. All our rage, begs a
G A5 Cadd9 Em G A5 Cadd9 Em
stage. It's a waste of time though. And your style, seems
G A5 Cadd9 Em G
worthwhile. And this lonely road has turned.
Pre-Chorus: (A5 = (577xxx). Strum chords clean)
D5 E#5 A5 D5 E#5 A5
(woo-oo) And you faded there.(woo-oo) They pretend to care.
D5 E#5 A5 E5 E5
(woo-oo) Vultures waiting. If you don't like me, certify me!
Chorus: (A5 = (577xxx)and E5 = (022xxx). Use distortion!)
A5 C5 E5 A5 C5 E5
Yea--ahh. I don't know yeah. Yea--ahh. I won't go yeah.
A5 C5 E5 D5 E5
Yea--ahh. Save it, I'm okay. Okay.
Play the intro picking clean part here twice.
Verse 2: (Play just like verse 1) Back to A5 = (x022xx)
And in the sun, a loaded gun make for conversation.
All the while, in denial. It's too late for me to change.
Prechorus: (Play like first pre-chorus)
(Woo-oo) And you were unchained.
(Woo-oo) Nothing more had changed.
(Woo-oo) I could fake it.
If you still hate me, confiscate me!
Chorus: (Play just like first chorus)
Yea-ahh. I don't know yeah.
Yea-ahh. I won't go yeah.
Yea-ahh. Save it I'm okay. Okay.
Yea-ahh. I won't play yeah.
Yea-ahh. Go away yeah.
Yea-ahh. Save it I'm okay. Okay.
Guitar Solo: One guitar picks the intro/verse part during this.
