Fun, fast, energetic! The best kind! I saw these guys live, they were great. Also, I was
them, so I know that this is the fingering he uses. Listen to the recording to get the
down. Enjoy!

When you’re standing there...
Do that three times. Then, during the guitar interlude...

D|-----------------------------------------|
A|-7-8-8-8-8-8-8-8/12-12-12-12-12-12-12-12-|
E|-----------------------------------------|
Play that twice, and the second time you can either cut the last note really short or
it ring for the keyboard interlude.

As a nice clincher, you can either cut the last note short, let it ring while the guitar
down, or slide down with the guitar. It’s a matter of preference--it sounds great
way!
