Well, this is my first tab. It's 100% accurate except the solo, which is a little off. Anyhoo... enjoy.

Intro:

If I'm playing by myself, I like to do the little bass fills in there too,
so I'll tab them out.

After the first one:

After the fourth there isn't one, just hold the chord until you go to the last part of the intro:

Strum these chords a bit.

|-10-10-10-9--9--8--8--|

Alright, now for the bulk of the song. Here's the chords that get used:

[Em] [Am] [B] [B#] [G] [D]

|-7-|-5-|-7-|-8--|----|-10-|
|-8-|-5-|-7-|-8--|-12-|-10-|
|-9-|-5-|-8-|-9--|-12-|-11-|
|-9-|-7-|-9-|-10-|-12-|-12-|
|-7-|-7-|-9-|-10-|-10-|-12-|
|-7-|-5-|-7-|-8--|----|-10-|


And here we go.

[Em]Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know

Had a drink about an hour ago
[Am]Sitting in a corner by herself
[B]In a bar in [B#]downtown [B]hell

[Em]She heard a noise and she looked to the door

And saw a man she'd never seen before
[Am]Light skin, light blue eyes
[B]A double chin and a [B#]plastic [B]smile

[Em]Her heart raced as he walked through the door

And took an empty seat next to her at the bar
[B]'My brand new car is parked right outside
[Am]How'd you like to go for a ride?' And she said

[Em]'Wait a minute I have to think'

He said 'That's fine may I please buy you a drink?'
[B]One drink turned into 3 or 4
And they [B#]left and got [B]into his [Em]car
And they [B#]drove away some [B]place real [Em]far

[Em]Now babe, the time has come

How'd you like to have a little fun? And she said
[B]'If we could only [B#]please be on our [G]way,
I would not [D]run' [Em]

[Em]That's when things got out of control

[Em]She didn't [B#]want [B]to
[Em]He had [B#]his [B]way
[Em]She said [B#]let's [B]go
[Em]He said [B#]no [B]way

[B]Come on babe it's your lucky day[B#][B]
[B]Shut your mouth we're gonna do it my way[B#][B]
[B]Come on baby don't be afraid[B#][B]
[B]If it wasn't for date rape, I'd never get laid


-------------------------------------------------------


Now it's solo time! This is the general gist of it, though there are some subtle
tweaks that I couldn't catch, but I know are there. When I've tabbed out the 10^^^10,
You have to hit the ten, bend it up to a 12 and hold it while you hit 12 on the high E string,
and then hit the bent ten again while bringing it down. It's a Chuck Berry riff, a little
difficult to get used to but sounds great. It's also used in the latter half of the solo,
where you bend up 10 and hit 7 as well.

/ - Slide up
\ - Slide down
H - Hammer
P - Pick off
^ - Bend up the next note, so if it's says 10^12, bend the 10 up to a 12
~ - Vibrato (very little in this song, so don't overdo it)



|------------|----12-----|--------------------------------|
|-----8-10p8-|-10^^^10\8-|-10p8---8-----------------------|

Then play the intro again, and we're back into the second verse.



------------------------------------------------------------------------------


[Em]He finished up, started the car

He turned around and drove back to the bar
[Am]He said 'Now baby, don't be said,'
[B]'In my opinion, you [B#]weren't half [B]bad.'

[Em]She picked up a rock.

Threw it at the car.

Hit him in the head

Now he's got a big scar
[Am]Come on, party people won't you listen to me
[B] [B#]
[Em]The next day, she went to her drawer

Looked up her local attorney-at-law
[B]Went to the phone and filed a police report
[Am]And then she took the guys ass to court

[Em]The day he stood infront of the judge

He screamed 'She lies, that little slt!'
[B]The judge knew he was full of sht
So he [B#]gave him [B]25 [Em]years
And now his [B#]heart is [B]filled with [Em]tears

[Em]One night in jail, it was getting late

He was but-raped by a large inmate
[B]And he screamed
But the [B#]guards payed no [G]attention to his [D]cries

[Em]That's when things got out of control

[Em]The moral [B#]of [B]the
[Em] [B#] [B]
[Em]It does not [B#]pay[B]
[Em]To be drunk and [B#]hor[B]ny

[B]But that's the way it had to be[B#][B]
[B]They locked him up and threw away the key
Well [B#]I c[B]an't take pity on men of his kind
[B#]Eve[B]n though he now takes it in the behind

[Em] [B#] [B] [Em] [B#] [B] [Em] [B#] [B] [B#] [B] [B#]
[B]But that's the way it had to be[B#][B]
[B]They locked him up and threw away the key
Well [B#]I c[B]an't take pity on men of his kind
[B#]Eve[B]n though he now takes it in the behind



------------------------------------------------------


The horns play the next part, but if you don't have any (most likely)
I tabbed it out.
