There are some additional notes after this layout on the way certain things are
fingered. This edition is a bit of a hybrid of the album version and the acoustic
version played on the Howard Stern show...Listen to the song, and match up what I
have here, and it's a really easy piece to add to your collection.
Intro:
G Bm E
D C B
Verse 1:
EmPass the Dtime kickin' as Ctime rips by
GNeither gBmoose nor the gEander fly
GBuy a mBminute spend an hour bEurnin', burnin'
DTake a pCeek as the model eaBrns it, earns it
EmWalk a mDile as it keeps cCrawlin', crawlin'
GKill the poliBmtician and wEash it with everpure
Chorus:
Ebmaj7So the answer gets hBbarder, harder
Ebmaj7And the truth's getting fBbarther and farther
Ebmaj7And the bottle keep cBbhurnin', and churnin'
Ebmaj7Seven caged tigers fBbly by, fly by.B..
Verse 2:
GWastin' tBmime chasing those cEows that fly
DChurnin' out aCll of that buBtterfly sugarboost
EmTrack the blDade as it pulls dCownward, onward
GTake the Bmpill it'll kill the mEartyrs, martyrs
GPassin' tBmime rippin as tEime kicks by.
DPass the umCbilical cord doBwn for a fly-by
EmTake a snDeak where the model eaCrns it, earns it
GHike a mBmile as it keeps cErawlin', crawlin'
Repeat Chorus
Bridge/Solo
G Bm E , A F , Bm C (hold C two measures)
repeat ...............C (walk down Bm, Bb)
Repeat Chorus
NOTES:
On the E major chords, hammer on G string 2nd fret as in song.
The first C major in verses is played (-32030)
Second C major in verses is played (-32033), and walks middle finger down to B note.
The B major in the verses has a little walkup to it as well; the little finger slides
up one fret and then the F# on the bottom string is accented.
You've really just got to listen to the song to get the feel of where the hammers,
slides, etc are.
Also, in the acoustic version I've heard, a barred D minor chord can be used in place
of the Bb major. It's a nice variation and can even be switched back and forth as you
play the chorus.
Hope this helps!
