The verse:
A5 power chords, tickling a G5 power chord at the beginning of every
couple measures, and at the beginning of each measure during the
second part of the verse. Here's the gist with a lame attempt at the lyrics.
[A5]Frequently called nothin' buts [G5]
[A5]Snorin' when you snap it back[G5]
[A5]Everyone[G5]
[A5]Knows it's you[G5]
[A5]Why won't y[G5]ou ad[A5]mit it, scream
[E5]You
That E5 is:
[G--9--]
[D--9--]
[A--7--]
[E-----]
Then, the little bridge-riff is:
A--7----8--7-
And take it all
Verse again, then the chorus, which goes like this:
[A5]single-note A (7th fret on D) D5
I be-lieve,
A-note C5 E5
that I'll never leave your serpentine pad.
(just in case yr wondering, all the chords are barre)
My interpretation of the lyrics:
Frequently called nothin' buts
Snorin' when you snap it back
Everybody, knows it's you, why won't you admit it, scream!
You
And take it all
Corporate integration
From the corporation
I don't need this corporation attitude
Tude tude tude
--Chorus--
I believe,
That I'll never leave
Your serpentine pad
Darlin' when you wake up
Better ask the grown-ups
If they have, hose and twine, leave the man who needed the lice
Think it might
Be another scene, bet
I don't wanna know, but
I don't know, if I should, if I could or if I would, anyway
(serpentine pad)
--Chorus--
End.
