This is an awesome song by my favorite band, Reel Big Fish. If you're
confused and bewildered by the song title, that's probably because you
don't have Keep Your Reciept, a 5-song album released before Turn the Radio
Off. I suggest you buy KYR, it has a great version of Unity (by OpIvy!) on it.
Anyway, here it is:
Intro: (quiet)
| E 2 2 0 2 3 3 |

D A Bm G

| B |
| G 7 |
| D 7 7 9 5 4 4 2 0 |
| A 5 7 9 5 |
| E 5 7 3 |
D A B G
This is played 4x. The 4th time, play this riff instead of the one above:
(Note: This riff: D--4-4-2-0- is played many times during the song, and
Is called simply "riff" in my transcription.)
Verse:(all barre chords, and played fast. Listen to CD for rythym.)
D A F# G
There's a (little girl) on my mind.
(Little girl) all the time.
(Little girl) there's always one.
(Little girl) look what she's done.
G C B (Heavy Palm mute)
She drags a tear from my eye.
G C B (Palm mute)
You know I sure hate to lie.
G A D A
Why can't you stay here, you know it's so beautiful,
G A D D D (riff)
and how come all girls think they're fat?
Chorus:
D D A B G (riff)
Hey Hey Hey She's so pretty.
D D A B G (riff)
Hey Hey Hey My friend.
D D A B G (riff) D D B A G
Hey Hey Hey I feel stupid. Again.
(Back to: D A F# G)
(She said) it's all right.
(She said) come over tonight.
(She said) my mom's not home.
(She said) I'm all alone.
G C B (palm mute)
She took me back to her house.
G C B (pm)
She pushed me down on the couch.
G A D A
She said it's all right, we're gonna be good friends,
G A D D D (riff)
cause the kissing only leads to the end.
(Repeat chorus)
Over bass solo:
D A F# G
Guitar Solo: (*the low part is played on a second guitar)
| E 7s5 10 12 10 14 15 14 19 17 |
| B 8 7 10 |
| G 9 7 |
| D |
| A |
| E |
E----------------------------------------3-2-0---
| B 8 7 3 |
| G 9 7r 0 0 2 |
| D 4 2 4 4 |
| A *5 5 |
| E 5 2 2 3b 5 2 2 3b |
Then play chorus 2x, and that's it!
I hope this sounds good to you. Let me know of any other ways of playing
This song, especially the solo.
