O.K this is an easy basis for the song. It's my first tab, so if
there's any mistakes, then tell me and i'll corrrect them. I'll only
tab the first half of the song, which is the same as the single, because
it will take me far too long to tab the 4 minute solo. There are lots of
lead parts during the verse, but there preety easy to work out, if you
can't, maybe you should put the guitar down.
Enjoy...
Capo 2nd fret = tabbed as 2nd fret is 0, third fret is 1,etc

VERSE 2 - Chords - as VERSE 1
Mad Lizzy crumbs, blind cobblers, were a sight to behold,
she was a rum old slapper and we always tried to get her
pants off when she phoned.
Left her cap by the sink, it's not what you think, oh take me home.
(FILL 1)

There's a little bass solo, which is then followed by one of the best
solo's i've ever heard. If you haven't got the album vesion - get it.
Squire now goes mental and some parts are un-tabable, but with hard work
you'll probably be able to work some of it out. The chords over the solo
are similar to the ones used in the verse and chorus.
