This song is quite easy..! The only possible difficulty is the strumming, so just listen
to it carefully to get it. :)

At the third time a second Guitar plays the first chord with a Flanger effect (I think)
just when the first guitar changes to the second chord.

E|---------1--3--4---9------- |---------4-----------
A second Guitar plays (again) the last chord (6-6-4) with a Flanger effect
just when the first does the same (without Flanger)
Verse 1 (clean ska) | Verse 2 (clean ska)

e|-------------------- |
B|---8--6--4--6------- |
G|---8--6--5--6------- 2x | When the beat is going faster (Text: "Does it feel like a broken record"),
D|---8--6--6--6------- | you have to play the same chords like in Verse 1, but have to strum every
A|---6--4--6--4------- | chord longer. You also have to play it a bit faster, I think. Just try it
E|---------4---------- | out.

*phew* Was a piece of hard work.. It sure isn't 100%-ly correct, because it's my first
tab,
but it should be ok. If you have any comments, please eMail me (FreddyFox@gmx.net) !!
