BLUE COLLAR SUICIDE
By The Refreshments
from Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy
OK, the verse is almost entirely on E but it's mostly
a drums and bass thing except for Brian's teensy little fills.
Anyway, the main riff goes something like this with the rhythm
strumming an E the whole time:
| E | | | | |
| B | | | | 5 4 2 |
| G | | | | 4 2h4 2 |
| D | 2 | 2 | 2 | 2 |
| A | 2 0 0 2 | 2 2 0 | 2 0 0 2 2 | |
| E | 4 | 4 0 | 4 | |
Brian varies the little verse fills in every verse but to get started
use..
Natural harmonics...... and a gradual bend
PRE-CHORUS
F#m A
But if I could You know I would
E Esus4 E
Run away
E
Right now! (get a nice big pick scrape going here)
CHORUS:
E5 A5 D5
I can't sleep coz she snores like a chainsaw...
E5 A5 D5 E5

E5, A5, D5
SOLO (nice and easy for a change)
| E | |
| B | |
| G | 2h4p2 1 2 1 |
| D | 2 1 2 1 2 1 |
| A | 2 2h4p2 4 |
| E | |
| E | | ..X X as |

| G | 2 | ..X X times |
| D | 2 1 2 4 | ..X X as |
| A | 2 | X X needed. .. |
| E | | X X .. |
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
bass thing and
a bit of
E strumming
At the end as things get a little more psychotic just keep
pounding out E5, A5, D5 over and over until the cool wah/noise
ending.
You shouldn't have many problems figuring out the few couple of notes
That make up the verses, I just can't be stuffed writting it all down :)
