Artist: New Found Glory
Song: Sucker
Album: New Found Glory
Tabber: Jeff to the Gun to the Arson
This is an awesome song, I think it's one of NFG's best. It has blazing fast power chords,
so it's perfect for experienced punk guitarists. It takes some practice to get the rythm
right, but I included it all in here so pay attention to the tab.

In the background of the interlude there are lots of effects being
played and cymbals being clashed, so it's hard to hear the actual
guitar part, but I can assure you this is 100% correct.

| i think he is using it bitterly cuz in the next line he goes "tell me or have you already forgotten it" like he thinks she's already over him that quickly. but thats just my opinion | |

| *BEING WRONG NEVER FELT SO RIGHT* I love NFG sooo much!! They were one of the first punk bands I ever listened to and I've been hooked ever since! I just saw them play with GC on Friday... it was GREAT! Personally, I think GC has sold out a little... but not NFG... they played this song at the concert and it was amazing! They're such good performers... ahhh!! I love them so much! lol.. ok, i'll shut up now.. | |

| unless you are Steve Klein you are never going to know the true meaning of this song. that is just the way it is. but anyway... i think this song is downright hilarious. because it's basically steve saying yeah. the EP and first full length albums were all about you, but this record it's different. i bet this girl felt like a real ass when she heard this song. | |

| This song is in reply to an ex-girlfriend (I believe Steve's) Basically most of the songs in NGCS are written to her this song is telling her that he has moved on and isn't writing about her anymore. Thus the line "i bet you thought this song was about you" I'm not sure... but I'm thinking "Tell Me about your first kiss" might be a pick-up line that he used. However it could also be used bitterly against the girl if Steve was her first kiss | |

| Oh yeah I definately agree with the first guy up there who said Steve was the first kiss, and he's just shoving it in her face. But also she could just be a whore, and used him, and she's kissed so many boys she can't remember what was special...*cough* Hello! I always liked this song, but when i went to their concert it was surprising because at one point instead of saying "Being wrong never felt so riiight" they said "being wrong never felt so FUCK YOU" and it was so charged up, ya know, and how they go right in the music after that that, it was a great moment. =D | |

| This song is about a guy who's met a new girl in his life and he's falling in love with her, while making sure his ex knows this song is not about her. | |

| This is the all time best NFG song. The lyrics are very well written. I'm pretty sure Steve writes all the songs. | |
