ARTIST/GROUP: Offspring ALBUM: Americana TRANSCRIBED BY: qualitytabs@qualitytabs.tk ********************************************************************** CHORDS: ------- EADGBE F (133211) Bb (x13331) C (x32010) G (320003) Really simple song. When the electric guitar comes in he plays the same chords as the acoustic except for Bb and G, he plays the Bb chord as (688766) and the G chord as (355433). The electric plays just upstrokes with accents on the 2nd and 4th beats of each bar (kind of a reggae thing). It's very likely that there are some errors in the lyrics. I just listened to them and typed them down and I couldn't hear some of it very well so any corrections are welcome. 20.03.99 - I've corrected the lyrics, they should now be perfect. VERSE 1: [no guitar in this verse] -------- My friend's got a girlfriend, man hates that bitch He tells me every day He says "man I really gotta lose my chick in the worst kind of way" VERSE 2: -------- F Bb She sits on her ass, he works his hands to the bone F C to give her money every payday F Bb But she wants more dinero just to stay at home F C F Well my friend, you've gotta say CHORUS: ------- F Bb I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way F C F ah now why don't you get a job F Bb Say no way, say no way yeah, no way F C F ah now why don't you get a job VERSE 3: [play like verse 2] -------- I guess all his money, well it isn't enough to keep her bill collectors at bay I guess all his money, well it isn't enough 'cause that girl's got expensive taste CHORUS: [play like first chorus] ------- I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way ah now why don't you get a job Say no way, say no way yeah, no way ah now why don't you get a job BRIDGE: ------- Bb F Well I guess it ain't easy doing nothing at all, oh yeah Bb G C But hey man free rides just don't come along, every day VERSE 4: [play like verses 2 & 3] -------- My friend's got a boyfriend, man she hates that dick she tells me every day He wants more dinero just to stay at home Well my friend, you've gotta say CHORUS: [play like previous chorus] ------- I won't pay, I won't pay ya, no way ah now why don't you get a job Say no way, say no way yeah, no way ah now why don't you get a job CHORUS/OUTRO: ------------- F Bb I won't give you no money, I always pay F C F ah now why don't you get a job F Bb Say no way, say no way yeah, no way F C C F ah now why don't you get a job ********************************************************************** Questions, comments, corrections, requests, send to: qualitytabs@qualitytabs.tk ********************************************************************** Visit the QUALITY TABS INC.
