Tuning: Standard
The entire song follows the chord progression Am , C , F , G (barred) (or standard G; I
how Gbar sounds, though, but it's up to you). You can also play the power chords if you

the standard chords offer a fuller sound. I know they're not labeled correctly, but to make
it simple I put them in parentheses next to the standard chords.
Enjoy! And buy their CD; these guys are hilarious.
