Cretin Family, by the Ramones as found on the 1995 Ramones Album "Adios Amigos"

I have a lot of videos of the ramones playing and I can sort of see the frets

johnny is on but not well. I can sort of see the movement, I know this

is wrong and im probably making the song harder than it is but its still

just power chords so youll do fine. This is for all of you who don’t know

the chords by letters, only by their tabs, just like stupid lil me. Im only

twelve but im getting lessons soon and the ramones totally kick the crap

out of every other band on earth (not talentwise) but in being cool I

guess. This is a good song for beginners, and cj sings in it so have fun….

Intro/ Chorus Riff

D| 9-99999-9-99999-9-99999-7777-65

A| 9-99999-9-99999-9-99999-5555-43

E| 7-77777-7-77777-7-77777-xxxx-xx

Then start it all over again. For the first chords count them out like

1,1-2-3-4-5, 1, 1-2-3-4-5, 1, 1-2-3-4-5, then the last ones 1234-5-6.

Repeat that riff twice.

Verse Riff

G| 7-77777

D|9-99999-7-77777

A|9-99999-5-55555

E|7-77777

Do that 4 times counting it out like the intro and then go to

G|

D|7-77777-9-99999

A|7-77777-9-99999

E|5-55555-7-77777 do that counting it out the same way and theN do

D|9-99999

A|9-99999

E|7-77777

to lead into a chorus.

Do the Intro riff here for a chorus. That’s it. Heres the song structure

and lyrics.

Verse Riff

Chorus

After the chorus do two chorus riffs with now words. Then do a the first

half of the verse riff. When the chord goes up, say either everyones against

me, or oi oi oi oi. Keep repeating that playing only the first half of

the verse riff until fade.

Ramones rule. This is my first tab and its all my own work. My e mail

is tygistguitar@tumyeto.com its in standard tuning too. Peace outside….

spencer askin,

SHOUT out to my band members josh, scott,

siobahn(shivane, the gentle giant at like 4 feet tall), and nate,

the cambo american with no drums even tho hes supposed to be our drummer.
