"Kerosene" by Bad Religion off of the album "Recipe For Hate"
(transcribed by David Back, email: sphaeron@csionline.com)
The chords for this song are really divided into three main parts, with
some little variations.
..and of course, an overdriven channel.
Verse Chords:
These are played in a very fast strumming pattern, just copy
off the album as well as you can..
e|--10-10-10-10-10---9--9--9--9--9----7--7--7--7--7---9--9--9--9--9----
b|--10-10-10-10-10---9--9--9--9--9----7--7--7--7--7---9--9--9--9--9----

You play that a few times, then play the same thing with a small variation..

Now comes the chorus, with some really cool lyrics, as well. :-)

"alone to watch it burn... Kerosene..."
Now after doing that stuff a few times, (just follow the album) you
will come across the "solo" section of the song, with a bridge of sorts
followed by a guitar solo. You play the intro to the chorus just as
you would if a normal chorus was to come about, but then you play
this riff. These are the chords...

E|----0---0-----10---10-----8----8----8----8------10---10---10---10--
You just have to piece it together and play the certain parts when they
come around in the song.
