[-7---------7-7-6---------6-6-6-4-] ------------------------------------------------------------------- During the verse Rod plays the lead over the strumming pattern. Its almost the sqme in every verse. It is something like this: E [-------------------------------------------------------] B [-----------7-9b11r9-7-------------16-16-16-16-16-16-16-] G [---6-8-8--------------8---8---8------------------------] D [-8-----------------------------------------------------] Riff 1 A [-------------------------------------------------------] E [-------------------------------------------------------] E [------------------------] B [------------------------] G [-----6---8-8b10---8-----] D [-8--------------------6-] Riff 2 A [------------------------] E [------------------------] You will have to listen to the song to see the exact timing of where these riffs fit in. Play riff 1, then riff 2 and then back to riff 1 again. In verse 3 though, riff 1 is played then riff 2, but instead of repeating riff 1 play this: E [----------------------] B [-16-16-16-16-16-16-16-] G [----------------------] D [----------------------] Riff 3 A [----------------------] E [----------------------] -------------------------------------------------------------------- b - bend string r - release string x - mute note v - strum up n - strum down -------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics: Aim for the body rare, you'll see it on tv The worst thing in 1954 was the bikini See the girl on the tv dressed in a bikini She doesnt think so, but she's dressed for the h-bomb For the h-bomb. And i found that essence rare, it's what i looked for And i knew i'd get what i asked for. Aim for the country fare, you read it in the paper The worst thing that happens any week, a scandel on the front page See the happy pair smiling, close like they're monkeys They wouldn't think so, but they're holding themselves down. Hold themselves down. And i found that essence rare, it's what i looked for And i knew i'd get what i asked for. And i found that essence rare, it's what i looked for And i knew i'd get what i asked for. Aim for politicians fair who'll treat your vote, hope well The last thing that they'll ever do, is act in your interests Look at the world through polaroid glasses Things seem a whole lot better for the working classes And i found that essence rare, it's what i looked for And i knew i'd get what i asked for. And i found that essence rare, it's what i looked for And i knew i'd get what i asked for. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Any comments or corrections, send me an email to MrRabies@hotmail.com
