This is a great song by one of my all-time favorite bands, Goldfinga!
The song, does, however, have lots of little bits and pieces to play. So,
if you like Goldfinger, I know you'll enjoy it:
Main/Intro riff: (repeated)
E---------------------------------- B---------------------------------- G---------------------------------- D----4-5-4-5--------4-5-4-5-7------ A-5r---------7---5r-------------5r- E--------------5--------------5----
Play main/intro riff once, then at the end of the second time, play this:
E----------- B-----------
[G-11-11--12-]
[D-11-11--12-]
A--9--9--10- E-----------
[F#ii] [G]
2nd guitar plays these chords under the main/intro riff:
E------------------------ B------------------------ G--7--------------------- D--7----5----9----7------ A--5----5----9----7------ (Play these 4x) E-------3----7----5------
[D] [G] [B] [A]
The intro riff ends, and lead guitar plays this riff:
E---------------------------------------------------- B-----7-8-10-8-8-----7-8-7-7s8-7----------7-10------- G-7-9------------7-9-------7s9-7--9-7-9-7------9-7--- D---------------------------------------------------- A---------------------------------------------------- E----------------------------------------------------
Rythym ska part played during verse:
[D] [G]
E---5----3----- B---7----3----- G---7----4----- D---7----5----- A-------------- E--------------
Verse:
[D]You taught me how to [G]play guitar, [D]you taught me that [G]I'd go
far just by [D]trying.[G] Yea just by [D]tryi[G]ng. [D]We were kids playing
[G]Social D., [D]spiritual man on [G]l.s.d., we were [D]frying[G], yea we
were [D]frying.
Play this riff during last half of verse:
E-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10------------------------- B-10-10-10-10--8--8--8--8----------7-7-7-8-7------ G--------------------------7-7-7-9-----------9-7-- D------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------
Bridge:
[Em] [C] [Em] [Fii]
E--7---3---7---8---- B--8---5---8--10---- G--9---5---9--10---- D--9---5---9--10---- A------------------- E-------------------
[Em]Once in a while you'd [C]fuck with me, no [Em]ground on my bass and
[Fii]it shocked me.
Chorus:(the C and D in parantheses aren't played by guitar)
[G] [Am] [C] [D] [G] [Am] [(C)(D)] [G]
E---3---5---3---5-----3---5----------3------ B---3---5---5---7-----3---5----------3------ G---4---5---5---7-----4---5----------4------ D---5---7---5---7-----5---7----------5------ A-------7-----------------7----------5------ E-------5-----------------5----------3------
Chris Cayto[G]n,[Am] I called you Satan[C].[D]
Cause when we were skat[G]in',[Am] you would[(C)] make the[(D)] metal [G]sign.
Repeat intro.
Verse:
You got [D]kicked out of school for wearing [G]profanity. "[D]Too
drunk to fuck" said the [G]Dead Kennedys on your [D]button[G], your
punk rock [D]butto[G]n.
Riff: (* means played quietly)
E-----------------------------------*10-*10-------- B-----7-8-8-9-8---------7-8-7-8------------*10----- G-7-9-----------10-7-7----------7r------------*11-- D-------------------------------------------------- A-------------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------

Riff:

Bridge:
[Em]Once in a while I'd [C]surf with you, [Em]our first band was called
[Fii]I.M.R.U.
Then repeat chorus, playing a barred G-C-G instead of the
(C)-(D)-G part at the end.
Next: repeat intro 2x, then lead guitar plays this while 2nd guitar plays
a D with palm muting:
E-----------------------------------------------------/10- B-----------7-8-7-8-------7-8-7-8-9-----7-8-7------------- G-----(6)-7---------9---7-------------7-------9-7-9-7----- D-(7)-----------------7-------------7--------------------- A--------------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------------
Last verse repeats the words from the first verse, except it's played
with barre chords.
Riff: ("yeah just by trying. . .")
E--------------------- B--------------------- G--------------------- D--4-4-4-4-4-4--2--0-- A--------------------- E---------------------
Whew! That's pretty much all I've got. It took me a while to figure this
one out, and there may be some other, better ways to play this song. If
you have any questions, comments, changes, or maybe even requests, e-mail
me and I'll see what I can do you for.
