	Gtr. 2: A, B, D (x4)

Verse1: (gtr. 1 plays Riff B x4, once per line)
you probably heard this melody line before
i thought it up at the grocery store
so stop your engines and start the press
i probably ripped you off, yeah thats my guess

Gtr. 1 keeps playing Riff A
Gtr. 2: A, B, D (x2)

Verse2:
so i pulled up a chair and maybe have a drink
can't write a song where i have to think
i'll put on a record and steal a part
here's the opening chord, what a place to start

				   B       D
for every next cool band there's a hundred more

Gtr.1 keeps with Riff A
Gtr.2: A, B, D (x4)

Verse3:
original music is a joke this week
number 1 hit records never were unique
but i'll listen to my radio its such a bore
wait a minute thats a pretty cool opening chord

CHORUS2:
                                  opening chord
(that's a pretty, that's a pretty cool chord)    (x8)
