 "A New Tomorrow"<br/>
 performed by Screeching Weasel<br/>
 written by Ben Weasel<br/>
 (C) 1993 No Budget Productions<br/>
 (P) 1993 Lookout! Records<br/>
 from the Lookout! Records release Anthem For a New Tomorrow (LK 76 LP/CS/CD)<br/>
 transcribed by Mike Ripplinger (openface@aol.com)<br/>
 <br/>
 [Notes]<br/>
 * (pm) = palm-muted<br/>
 * The verse vocals (as best as I can tell) go like this:<br/>
     1st lines: Ben Weasel<br/>
     2nd lines: Ben and Blake Swarzenbach<br/>
     3rd lines: Ben, Blake, and Cassandra Millspaugh<br/>
     4th lines: Ben, Blake, Cassandra, and Joey Vindictive<br/>
 * The chorus, I believe, is sung only by Ben (on lead) and Blake (on<br/>
 backing), though Vapid may be in there, too.<br/>
 <br/>

 ["A New Tomorrow"]<br/>
 <br/>
 [E(pm) / C / G (pm) / D] This is played just by guitar twice before the drums<br/>
 come in (as well as the horse racing report in the b.g.)  Once the drums<br/>
 enter, it's played four more times before vocals enter.<br/>
 <br/>
 [Verse]:<br/>
 E(pm)              C         G(pm)               D<br/>
   We don't believe in God or Jesus Christ anymore<br/>
 E(pm)              C            G(pm)                 D<br/>
   We don't need colleges to validate our lives anymore<br/>
 E(pm)                  C                    G(pm)                    D<br/>
   We don't need twelve steps to show us how weak we've become anymore<br/>
 E(pm)                  C                         G(pm)                 D<br/>
   We don't need to buy into a system that offers empty promises anymore<br/>
 <br/>
 [Chorus] (vocals listed are lead vocals only):<br/>
    E          G<br/>
 Anymore... anymore<br/>
       D        C<br/>
 I can see... a new tomorrow<br/>
       E            G<br/>
 I can see... I can see<br/>
       D        C<br/>
 I can see... a new tomorrow<br/>
 <br/>
 [E(pm) / C / G(pm) / D] x4 (with horse raceing report in b.g.)<br/>
 <br/>
 [Verse]:<br/>
 E(pm)                 C               G(pm)                  D<br/>
   We don't need protection against anything anybody might say<br/>
 E(pm)                C            G(pm)                 D<br/>
   We know that government can't improve our lives anyway<br/>
 E(pm)                   C            G(pm)                        D<br/>
   We don't need to drug ourselves anymore to keep the boredom away<br/>
 E(pm)              C              G(pm)                          D<br/>
   We don't need anything except relying on ourselves for a change<br/>
 <br/>
 [Chorus]:<br/>
       E               G<br/>
 For a change... for a change<br/>
       D               C<br/>
 For a change... for a new tomorrow<br/>
       E            G<br/>
 I can see... I can see<br/>
       D        C<br/>
 I can see... a new tomorrow -- now!<br/>
 <br/>
 [E(pm) / C / G(pm) / D] Repeat until end, with lead<br/>
