Tabbed by David Bédard-Barrette, McGill University, Canada, December 2002

Here is another great song by Barenaked Ladies. This one is on the Stunt album,
released in 1998. I'm pretty sure for this one. A lot of chords, but not that
tough. Don't forget the capo on the 4th fret, and please rate this tab. Thanks!
