Here's a new song that Ted Leo performs.  It's awesome.  I love it.  I think the lyrics
are 98% right.  Just not sure what he says in the second line, (dubious?) and few other
lines might be iffy.  Other than that, I think it's fairly accurate.  Not sure what he 
does between the verses though.  Maybe some variation of the D chord.  The notes that he
picks are e, d c#, b.

for all the schadenfreude of mocking stupid politicians

G                        F#m                   Em

Trust in animus might just get you through the day

A                    Em                         Bm
