I know there is already a tab for this song floating around. But, it
involves a capo and whatnot, and this sounds much closer and it
resembles pat's guitar style much better.
Intro

The rest of the song is Eb Bb C and G
Eb Bb
I swear that someday
C Ab
I'll tell you without lying
Eb Bb
I was born to quit smoking
C Ab
I was born to quit dieing
(Follow this pattern, figure out the strumming and palm muting)
On that day, not doing heroin
Will be easy as piss and on that day
I'll stop talking so much
Shit about the government
Eb Bb C
Cause urine speaks louder than words
Ab
On a politician
Eb Bb
Or on a prison warden
C Ab
Urine speaks louder than words
I swear that today
I was born to be living!
I was born to be singing!
I was born to be fighting
but will somebody say
Is this resistance or a costume party?
Either way I think black
With bandannas is a boring theme
I don't gotta tell ya
Crackers are great with amnesia
When they wanna forget something like
Centuries of racism
They say look at the man on
Center stage and pay no attention
While millions get locked in a cage
Riots break out in Oakland
Urine speaks louder than words
On a prison warden
Or on a Bart policeman
Urine speaks louder than words
there is the one guitar tangent he goes on twice for like ten seconds tops,
which i dont plaly personally, but you can, its basically the last part of
the intro
|------4-4-4-4----|
|----6-4-4-4-4-6--|
|--8---5-5-5-5--8-|
|--8---6-6-6-6--8-|
|--6---6-6-6-6--6-|
|-----------------|
and the ending is that part and then alternating between the D# and the
|-----4-|
|-----4-|
|-----5-|
|-----6-|
|-----6-|

chord. Alright, good luck, email me with any requests, suggestions, or
