This song is mainly the same riff. I see him do it live and it looks like he starts
higher at the beginning then goes to the different thing for the verses, but
it still sounds very close to the same. I'm probably wrong, but hey, it's how I
play it!
Written: 3/9/97
Key: X means pick scrapes.

| Hmmm what to say? I love this song. So much emotion put into it, yet simplistic in nature...the meaning is kinda self-explanatory. | |

| I like this song. I like the guitar, the structure, the screaming, the way he repeats one line in the end. However, I liked all that much more in tourettes by Nirvana. It is a complete rip-off. Listen to the two songs back to back, and you will see how close they are to each other. I still like this song, but it IS a rip-off. | |

| Yeah, this song is basically written because Daniel Johns really liked Minor Threat, and he wanted to write a short punk-ish song like them...so he did, and here it is! | |
