INTRO
The effect pedals is really what makes this work and I guess he sorta plays it like
(Dan's drumsticks)
  1 2 3 4
e-8-------------------------------------------|
b-8-------------------------------------------|
g-10b-----------------------------------------|
D---------------------------------------------|
A---------------------------------------------|
E---------------------------------------------|
I think he sorta plays the D-string a bit open but at the same time he mutes it. Just do
a punk rock
messy Black Flag fucked up feel thing and it should work.
 
VERSE
(play this as you seem fits these are just the chords you can work around)

VERSE
CHORUS
 
SOLO
Basically you can play whatever, it's punk rock. Get creative!
I use this scale alot and it works for me. Now I've adjusted it to fit this song but you
can basically
just move it around the neck to do whatever. It's one of the five scales from the blues
pentatonic thing.
I'm not very good with these things but atleast it works.
