After A(12), Tim plays the same note w/improv bending and occasional A# and B(13and14) thrown in for
good measures for 3 measures. listen to cd for accuracy

Next few sections are only 1 measure because of Timmy's high speed playing

Thats the complete and accurate solo. the bends you will have to decipher
yourself. it took enough energy to write all this out in the first place.
if any of you ever play this solo well, record it and send it to me. Id
love to hear it(suburbmag@hotmail.com).

Rest of the song available upon request.

(w/ rhy. fig. 1)
Up and down the puppies' hair,
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere.
('Cause of original sin)
Down the hill fell Jack and Jill
and you came tumbling after
('Cause of original sin)

(pre-chorus)
F G
Rip away the tears,
Am G
Drink a hope to happy years.
F Esus4
And you may find,
F G
A lifetime's passed you by.

(w/ rhy. fig. 1)

What would you say?
(Don't drop the big one)
If you were monkey on a string
(Don't cut my lifetime)
If you were doggy on a chain
(Don't bite the mailman)
What would you say?

2. I was there when the bear ate his head,
Thought it was a candy.
(Everyone goes in the end)
Knock, knock on the door, who's it for?
There's nobody in here.
(Look in the mirror, my friend)
I don't understand at best.
Cannot speak for all the rest.
The morning rise, a lifetime's passed me by.
What would you say?

Every dog has its day, everyday has its way
Of being forgotten.
Mom's it's my birthday. Would you say, hey?
(Now, what would you say)
What would you say?

Jam (this part is fast and hard to play but it sounds awesome)

^ bend that note back and forth
up and down.. the puppy's..fleas..everywhere
e|----------0---0---------------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5-------x-----2~-0--------------------|
G|----------x\--x---------x--x-------2------------------|
D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|

D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0----2--x--------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3--3--x--------------------------|

for the verse preceeding the chorus, play this:

knock knock.. on the door.. nobody in here
e|----------0---0---------------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5-------x-----2~-0--------------------|
G|----------x\--x---------x--x-------2------------------|
D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0----2--x--------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3--3--x--------------------------|

look in the mirror my friend
e|----------0---0-0-----------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5----x-----------------------------|
G|----------x\--x------x-----------------------------|
D|-------5--5---x------x-----------------------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0-2-----------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3-----------------------------|

the chorus is simple:
the strumming is tricky but you will get it
prechorus:

I don't understand...
e|-1------3-----5---3---1--0--1---3-----|
B|-1------3-----5---3---1--0--1---3-----|
G|-2------4-----6---4---2--1--2---4-----|
D|-3------5-----7---5---3--2--3---5-----|
A|-3------5-----7---5---3--2--3---5-----|
E|-1------3-----5---3---1--0--1---3-----|

chorus:
what would you say
e|--------0--0-0-------------------------------------|
b|--------0--3/5-------------------------------------|
G|--------x\-x------x--------------------------------|
D|-----5--5--x------x--------------------------------|
A|-----0--x--3/5--0-2--------------------------------|
E|-3/5----5---------3--------------------------------|

don't drop the big one
e|--------0--0-0-------------------------------------|
b|--------0--3/5-------------------------------------|
G|--------x\-x------x-x-x----------------------------|
D|-----5--5--x------x-x-x----------------------------|
A|-----0--x--3/5--0-2-2-2----------------------------|
E|-3/5----5---------3-3-3----------------------------|

...monkey on a string
e|--------0--0-0-------------------------------------|
b|--------0--3/5-------------------------------------|
G|--------x\-x------x-x-x----------------------------|
D|-----5--5--x------x-x-x----------------------------|
A|-----0--x--3/5--0-2-2-2----------------------------|
E|-3/5----5---------3-3-3----------------------------|

the only difference in the verse play is this:

every dog has its day every day has its way of being forgotten..
e|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------x-----------x----------------|
D|-5-----5------------------x-----------x----------------|
A|-x-----x------------------2-----------2----------------|
E|-5-----5------------------3-----------3----------------|

then the jam goes like this:

B|---8-8--2----------------------------------------------|
G|---7-6--2--3--4----------7/9---------------------------|
D|---7-x--2--2--x----------x-x---------------------------|
