This song is number 11 off of Stephen Malkmus' self-titled album w/ The Jicks

There is a constant chord progression throughout the verses that goes like

this-

D- x-5-7-7-x-x-

Db/D- x-4-7-7-x-x-

B/D- 7-x-7-7-x-x

A/D- 5-x-7-7-x-x

G- 3-5-5-x-x-x

F#/G- 2-5-5-x-x-x-

Em- 0-2-2-0-0-0

A- 0-0-2-2-2-0

Then the prechorus thing is an alternating G and D, dig?

Check it:

D Db/D B/D A/D G F#m/G

Jennifer ...

Em A

He's the ...

D Db/D B/D

She's 18,...

A/D G F#m/G

She's a ...

Em A

Of a ...

G D

Kiss when ...

G D

To ...

G D

And if ...

G D

They don't ...

Em G

In joining ...

The chords for the next verse is identical until you get to "Let me out.."

then you do an A on the 7th fret with a little Chuck Berry alternation going

on like so:

5-7-7-x-x-x

5-7-7-x-x-x

5-9-x-x-x-x

5-7-7-x-x-x

then you do the D and G respective equivalents

A

Let me out ...

G

Let me ...

G

You got to ...

D

You ...

A

Let me ...

G

Out of ...

G

Out of here,...

A

running

Then it's the same as the beginning until the very end, there's a little

change on the very last chord

G

Neither one listens...

D

To ...

G

The Ess-...

D

And he sold ...

Em G

Jenny ...

Em G

And off ...

Em Eb...D

Off came ...

That's it. I've never seen him live, so I don't know if that's %100 correct.

Have a good time.
