Third verse
   (Guitar plays full chords B on VII fret and F# on II fret. )
   (Bass plays the same figure as in the first verse .)
 
 
And you thought that we were faking that we were all just money making
You do not believe we're for real or would just lose our cheap appeal
 
Fourth verse
Dont' judge a book just by the cover unless you cover just another
And blind acceptance is a sign Of fucking fools who stand in line
 
chorus
 
second bridge   (Same chords as in the first verse picked differently)
 
Unlimited edition with an unlimited supply
that was the only reason we all had to say goodbye

The tab is really good, exepect, i think that in the "nevermind the bollocks" recorded version, teh guitar is tuned a little lower than th regular tuning. But, whatever, if you the song play for your own, That's punk, so *** it anyway ...
