Those are pretty much all the riffs you need to play this song.
Hope someone out there digs this tune as much as I do. But anyway, most of
this transcription was from the Guitar World's 1/95 exploitation of punk
issue. If anyone wants anymore songs from it just leave a message. Also,
if someone could send me the lyrics, I'd really appreciate it. Send
questions,
comments, wit, corrections, flames, to me, amit, at:
mathuran@ttown.apci.com
P.S. Anyone have the chords to EMI or Submission, or Been Caught Stealin' by
Jane's Addiction, please send them to me or post.
