 this is the second song I learned to play on the guitar.  It's off of the 
 Joyride/Sick and Wrong 7" released around '93?  It's a joint International 
 Pop Underground/K records master. 
  
 It's done in bar chords, with that traditional "down-down-up up-down-up" 
 stroke method. 
  
 A       D 
  
 Saturday I jotted down some words I thought 
  
 A     E  D 
  
 All about a girl that I thought I loved 
  
 A         D 
  
 It told the story of what we did and what went wrong 
  
 A        E       D 
  
 You've heard it all before; it's the same old shit 
  
 solo:

 so I won't bore you with all the details 
 I'm sure that you can listen between the lines 
 I screwed her and she screwed me but we never once had sex 
 all we ever had was too much time 
  
 SOLO, then 
  
 ---------------------------------- 
 A				  \ 
 				   \ 
 love is just a joyride		    \ 
 				     \ 
 E				      \ 
 				       \ 
 drink a lot of beer and climb inside	\ 
 					 \ 
 D				 	  \ 
 					   }  CHORUS 
 lay your foot down on the gas		  / 
 					 / 
 D					/ 
 				       / 
 leave it there until you crash	      / 
 				     / 
 A      E      D      D		    / 
 				   / 
 love's just a joyride		  /

 A        D 
  
 this part of the song is called the second verse 
  
 A   E        D 
  
 it sounds just like the first verse, but with different words 
  
 A           D 
  
 it only has three chords, and they are A, E and D 
  
 	 A     E     D 
  
 they are A and E and D 
  
 SOLO ("there goes the dm...D...uh, A, E, and D...) 
  
 CHORUS twice, then 
  
 AA  C#C#  DD  DD  BB  C#C# E!E! E!E! 
  
 this repeats, with Dug doing what he does best over top of it.
