Standard tuning
Comments: Three chord rockabilly punk from the Misfits greatest
album. The half-step hammer-ons to E are varied a little during
the song. Listen to find out where. I don't have the lyrics to
this song and I won't even try to figure it out from the album
so you'll have to manage without them.
