Song: Love Story
Album: Heavy Petting Zoo

We saw a transcription for Love Story on OLGA and it's wrong.
This version is right.
Intro (palm muted bar chords)
Drums...
F - C - D
F - C - Bb
F - C - G - Bb - C (drum fill)
*First Verse
F C D
Partly owned tudor house
F C Bb
Wooden white picket fence
F C G Bb C
Mother waits for father in a backless dress
F C D
Hardly used a diaphragm
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/n/nofx/love_story_crd.html ]
F C Bb
Put back into it's case
F C G Bb F
A one-way trip down memory lane and she awaits
Chorus
(strum and pick bar chords)
C#
I don't wanna know
F
Cheat Me
C#
I don't wanna know
(drum fill)
*Chords are same as first verse,
Children play in the yard
Mother stares at a wall
Father says he's gonna be back late so don't wait up
'Bout a quarter to three
Father stares at a wall
Stained thicker than water, who's gonna clean it up?
*Chorus is the same, but the drum part changes to a fast roll after the
second "I don't wanna know" and the song launches into a punk tempo.
*The words to the second verse are repeated as the third verse in punk
tempo.
(end chorus, still at punk beat)
C# F
I don't wanna know, cheat me
C# F
I don't wanna know, cheat me
C# F
I don't wanna know, cheat me
C# F
I don't wanna know, cheat me........
