this is the second song I learned to play on the guitar. It's off of the
Joyride/Sick and Wrong 7" released around '93? It's a joint International
Pop Underground/K records master.
It's done in bar chords, with that traditional "down-down-up up-down-up"
stroke method.
A D
Saturday I jotted down some words I thought
A E D
All about a girl that I thought I loved
A D
It told the story of what we did and what went wrong
A E D
You've heard it all before; it's the same old shit
solo:

so I won't bore you with all the details
I'm sure that you can listen between the lines
I screwed her and she screwed me but we never once had sex
all we ever had was too much time
SOLO, then
----------------------------------
A \
\
love is just a joyride \
\
E \
\
drink a lot of beer and climb inside \
\
D \
} CHORUS
lay your foot down on the gas /
/
D /
/
leave it there until you crash /
/
A E D D /
/
love's just a joyride /

A D
this part of the song is called the second verse
A E D
it sounds just like the first verse, but with different words
A D
it only has three chords, and they are A, E and D
A E D
they are A and E and D
SOLO ("there goes the dm...D...uh, A, E, and D...)
CHORUS twice, then
AA C#C# DD DD BB C#C# E!E! E!E!
this repeats, with Dug doing what he does best over top of it.
