Here is the Ramones first album powerchord masterpiece.
I left off Blitzkrieg Bop since it's been done to death.
For the full effect, play like Dee Dee and barre the fifth on your power chords
for depth. ( on a D, instead of -7- play -7- )
		               -7-         -7-
		               -5-         -5-
                                               ---          -5-
