Intro:Bb F# G# F# G#
Bb F# G# F# G#
I am an ex offender
Bb F# G# F# G#
They let me out in the summer
Bb F# G# F# G#
I think I was in a coma
Bb F# G# F# G#
I didn't know what to do
G#
Oh no
Chorus:
C# E
You go hang around go round
F#
I'll watch myself hang on
E
Look out for the Bugman
C# E
You go hang around around
F#
I'll watch myself hang on
N.C

Verse 2:
Bb F# G# F# G#
I got no sent of existence
Bb F# G# F# G#
I know the nodding dogs
Bb F# G# F# G#

Chorus:
C# E

E

C# E
You go hang around around

SOLO THING:
This is played on 2 guitars on the recorded version, but can also be played
on 1 if your good enough.
Guitar 1 strums an Bb once and slide down four times
guitar 2 plays around with this scale with very fast tremelo picking, heres
the scale:
E-22-19------------------------ E-20-17------------------------
B-------22-19------------------ or E-------20-17------------------
G-------------20-18------------ E-------------19-17------------
Bb F# G# F# G#
Bb F# G# F# G#
I go out in the city
Bb F# G# F# G#
I stay away from the bugs
F
Oh yeah
Bb F# G# F# G#
na na na na na oh oh...
Graham plays some minor cords underneath all that fuzz that go something like this:
E A D G B E
Bbm :x x x 15 14 13
f#m :x x x 11 10 9
G#m :x x x 13 12 11
the bass for the outro goes;
E-6-6-6-4-6-6-6-4-6-6-6-4-6-2-3-4- (x2)
E-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4
E-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-4-3-2--
A-------4s/6---------4s/6---------4s/6--------6-4--
E-2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6------ (x2)
E-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4
A-------4s/6---------4s/6---------4s/6--------6-4--
E-2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6---------2s/6------ (x2)
A-------4s/6---------4s/6-
E-2s/6---------2s/6-------
For the end bit after the sort of bass solo alex changes between:
this riff:
E-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-2-3-4-
And this riff:
A-------4s/6-
E-2s/6-------
and graham plays this on his guitar:
D------------4-6------------4---------
A------4-4-6----------4-4-6---6-6p4---
E-4s/6-----------4s/6---------------6-
if you hadn't guessed damon is singing;
space is the place x repeat to fade
however as far as i know he dosn't sing it on the live version.
