First song from the enonymous album of the greatest band ever on the face of this earth.

Have been playing this song for years and i think its pretty *** accurate.

Corroborated by live performances by the band in newcastle. and the LA dvd etc.

Rhythm note durations are included, but you might want to ignore them.

I hope to get more of the pretenders punk moments online, they seem neglected by tabbers!:o
