The bass changes to follow the C chord. Anything in brackets is optional but it is in  
the song.

(pick just means pick the top strings in the C chord) 

The strumming pattern is pretty simple. Listen to the song to get it down. 
Intro: Am 
    C 
Oh, I see a girl thats blue like the sea 
                                              Am 
when i go to sleep you know that she sees me, too 
      C 
yeah, just standing around like the popular kids 
                                   Am 
hoping saint peter will let us in, too 
                         F 
'well,' he says ' if you value your life stay off the drugs 
       C 
if you value the drugs stay off the map. 
       G 
if you value maps you better travel, son. 
       F                                         C(single strum)          Am 
if you dont want to travel then you better run' 

ooh, yeah, mmm, oh 
           C 
yeah, well I knew a king in his purple throne 
                                              Am 
oh, and he had some trouble so he's all alone now 
       C 
well I used to bring him little presents from time to time 
                                             Am 
and hed sit me in his castle and hed pick my mind 
          F 
he said, 'if you value your heart, oh stay on the road. 
       C 
if you value the road, oh stay on the top . 
       G 
if you value the top, oh youre gonna suffer son. 
       F                                             C(single strum)      Am 
and if you dont want to suffer, then you better run' 

(Full strums) 

       C 
well i see my boss in his practical suit 
                                            Am 
ill toss him in the cellar wont give him no food 

(Back to picking) 

     C 
when anybody tries to tell him what to do 
                                   Am 
he holds his breath until he turns blue 
          F 
he says, 'if you value your job, stay out of crime. 
       C 
if you value the crime, stay out of doors. 
       G 
if you value them doors you better lock em son. 
       F                                    G 
and if you dont want to lock em, you better buy a gun' 

This part speeds up. Its the same Chords but just at a different tempo. Theres a few  
riffs here. Theres no real 
pattern I can distinguish. He just plays around with the high B and E strings on the  
third fret with his pinkie. 
He also throws in some bends on the B string. 
The new bass riff comes to this.
