The song, does, however, have lots of little bits and pieces to play. So, if you like Goldfinger, I know you'll enjoy it: Main/Intro riff: (repeated) E---------------------------------- B---------------------------------- G---------------------------------- D----4-5-4-5--------4-5-4-5-7------ A-5r---------7---5r-------------5r- E--------------5--------------5---- Play main/intro riff once, then at the end of the second time, play this: E----------- B----------- G-11-11--12- D-11-11--12- A--9--9--10- E----------- F#ii G 2nd guitar plays these chords under the main/intro riff: E------------------------ B------------------------ G--7--------------------- D--7----5----9----7------ A--5----5----9----7------ (Play these 4x) E-------3----7----5------ D G B A The intro riff ends, and lead guitar plays this riff: E---------------------------------------------------- B-----7-8-10-8-8-----7-8-7-7s8-7----------7-10------- G-7-9------------7-9-------7s9-7--9-7-9-7------9-7--- D---------------------------------------------------- A---------------------------------------------------- E---------------------------------------------------- Rythym ska part played during verse: D G E---5----3----- B---7----3----- G---7----4----- D---7----5----- A-------------- E-------------- Verse: D G D G You taught me how to play guitar, you taught me that I'd go D G D G D far just by trying. Yea just by trying. We were kids playing G D G D G Social D., spiritual man on l.s.d., we were frying, yea we D were frying. Play this riff during last half of verse: E-10-10-10-10-10-10-10-10------------------------- B-10-10-10-10--8--8--8--8----------7-7-7-8-7------ G--------------------------7-7-7-9-----------9-7-- D------------------------------------------------- A------------------------------------------------- E------------------------------------------------- Bridge: Em C Em Fii E--7---3---7---8---- B--8---5---8--10---- G--9---5---9--10---- D--9---5---9--10---- A------------------- E------------------- Em C Em Once in a while you'd fuck with me, no ground on my bass and Fii it shocked me. Chorus:[the C and D in parantheses aren't played by guitar] G Am C D G Am (C)(D) G E---3---5---3---5-----3---5----------3------ B---3---5---5---7-----3---5----------3------ G---4---5---5---7-----4---5----------4------ D---5---7---5---7-----5---7----------5------ A-------7-----------------7----------5------ E-------5-----------------5----------3------ G Am C D Chris Cayton, I called you Satan.

Riff: (* means played quietly) E-----------------------------------*10-*10-------- B-----7-8-8-9-8---------7-8-7-8------------*10----- G-7-9-----------10-7-7----------7r------------*11-- D-------------------------------------------------- A-------------------------------------------------- E-------------------------------------------------- D G D You were born in S.L.T., vegetarian man no G D G D G B.L.T. on your muffin, no turkey stuffing.

Then repeat chorus, playing a barred G-C-G instead of the (C)-(D)-G part at the end. Next: repeat intro 2x, then lead guitar plays this while 2nd guitar plays a D with palm muting: E-----------------------------------------------------/10- B-----------7-8-7-8-------7-8-7-8-9-----7-8-7------------- G-----(6)-7---------9---7-------------7-------9-7-9-7----- D-(7)-----------------7-------------7--------------------- A--------------------------------------------------------- E--------------------------------------------------------- Last verse repeats the words from the first verse, except it's played with barre chords. Riff: ("yeah just by trying. . .") E--------------------- B--------------------- G--------------------- D--4-4-4-4-4-4--2--0-- A--------------------- E--------------------- Whew! That's pretty much all I've got. It took me a while to figure this one out, and there may be some other, better ways to play this song. If you have any questions, comments, changes, or maybe even requests, e-mail me and I'll see what I can do you for. Luke
