This kick-arse song is the first on the EP. The strumming is not perfect  
but I couldn't be bothered doing it any better. You should be able to  
figure it out anyway, it's not too hard. I should be posting ferris  
wheel pretty soon. 
     
    Intro (Lead guitar) 
    |------------------------------------------| (repeat lots of times) 
    |--------------------------------------10--| 
    |-----------10b--8--10---------10b--8------| 
    |------------------------------------------| 
    |---/8--8---------------8--8---------------| 
    |------------------------------------------| 
     
    end the lead guitar intro with: 
    |------------------------------| 
    |-----------------------10-----| 
    |-------10b---8^7-8^7-8--------| 
    |------------------------------| 
    |---8-8------------------------| 
    |------------------------------| 
     
    Intro (Rhythm guitar) 
    |-------------------------------| 
    |-------------------------------| 
    |-------------------------------| 
    |--3/-5---5/-7---7/-8---8/-10---|After this riff you have to pick scrape 
    |--1/-3---3/-5---5/-6---6/--8---|down to the verse riff 
    |-------------------------------| 
     
    verse (Rhythm guitar) 
    |-------------------------| 
    |-------------------------| there is a wierd sort of sound after a 
    |----------3-3-3-3--------| couple of bars. I'm pretty sure that they're 
    |--3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3--------| just harmonics. 
    |--3-3-3-3-1-1-1-1--------| 
    |--1-1-1-1----------------| 
     
    verse (Lead guitar) 
    |---------------------------------------| 
    |---------------------------------------|   Play this for the first part 
    |---------------------------------------|   then play the part below to  
    |-----------------------10-10-8-8-7~----|   the chorus. 
    |--8--8/10--8--8/10--8------------------| 
    |---------------------------------------| 
     
    |-----------------------------------------------------------| 
    |----------------------------------------------------10-----| 
    |----------10b--8^7-8^7-8--10---------10b--8^7-8^7-8--------| 
    |-----------------------------------------------------------| 
    |----8--8-----------------------8--8------------------------| 
    |-----------------------------------------------------------| 
     
    chorus (Rhythm guitar) 
    |----------------------------------------------------------------------| 
    |----------------------------------------------------------------------| 
    |--6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----------3-3-3-3---------3-3-3-3---| x2 
    |--6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3---| 
    |--4-4-4-4-4-4-4-4-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1---3-3-3-3-1-1-1-1-3-3-3-3-1-1-1-1---| 
    |------------------------------------1-1-1-1---------1-1-1-1-----------|     
     
    |--------------------------------------| 
    |--------------------------------------| 
    |----------6-6-6-6-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----| 
    |--6-6-6-6-6-6-6-6-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3-----| 
    |--6-6-6-6-4-4-4-4-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-1-----| 
    |--4-4-4-4-----------------------------| 
     
    In the chorus the lead guitar just does a couple of pick scrapes. 
     
    The lead guitar plays the following riff in the interlude 
    |-----------------------------------------------------------| 
    |-----------------------------------------------------------| 
    |----------10b--8^7-8^7-8--10---------10b--8^7-8^7-8--5-----| repeat a 
    |-----------------------------------------------------------| couple of 
    |----8--8-----------------------8--8------------------------| times 
    |-----------------------------------------------------------|

Little man running around town nothing more to say 
Doing everything the same as you did yesterday 
Young man felt because of what you were told to do 
Your dad and his friends all knew I was right for you 
 
Why do my frustrations get under my skin it's proof that I'm in 
What do all my fears both bring back in my brains I'm stuck in this place 
And we want it to frey yeah yeah but we just don't say 
Well I'm lost inside and we've all gone blind 
 
Little man sitting in your room got a box of clay 
Lay it out shape your thoughts 'cause it is the only way 
Young man please make what you want if it makes you smile 
Just go forget it all at last for a little while 
 
Why do my frustrations get under my skin it's proof that I'm in 
What do all my fears both bring back in my brains I'm stuck in this place 
And we want it to frey yeah yeah but we just don't say 
Well I'm lost inside and we've all gone blind
