Tune down half a step, which all good guitar players do as a matter of course, right? I mean how else are you going to play a simple Eb chord…barred on the sixth fret?

BASS INTRO:
A-------------|---------2-----:||
E-0---0-0---0-|-0---0-4---4-2-:||

(This is often doubled an octave up on the guitar.)

LEAD INTRO:
G---9-----9-----9-|---8-----8-----8-|
D-----6-----6-----|-----6-----6-----|
A-7-----7-----7---|-7-----7-----7---|

B---6-----6-----6-|---8-----8-----8-|
G-----6-----6-----|-----6-----6-----|
D-7-----7-----7---|-7-----7-----7---|

(This, too, gets run up an octave later in the song;
mini-barre e, B, and G on fret 9 for ease in playing.)

CHORDS:
E
I can't do anything right, uh-uh-oh
E
When she says that we're going under.
E
It takes over, over and over,
E
Again, again, again, uh-ah-oh-uh-oh
C#m                                E
And then, she really wants to give in
                                   C#m
And then, she really wants to give in

And then, uh-oh, uh-oh.
E
Thenthenthenthenthen....

Repeat three times. The song is so elementary! And so worthy of repeat listenings!
