Buzzbomb by the Dead Kennedys
from the album "Plastic Surgery Disasters"
Most of the guitar parts in this song are a guitar figure that Ray
moves up and down as the chord changes. The figure looks like this
in :
E -----------------------------------------------
B -----------------------------------------------
G -----------------------------------------------
D ---5-5--------5-5------------------------------
A ---5-5-6-5----5-5-6-5--------------------------
E ---3-3-----6--3-3-----6-3----------------------
Just move that up and down the neck as the chord changes.
Some of the other chords, mainly in the "chorusy" section
("Plow through rest area...") are just barre chords.
Buzzbomb buzzbomb macho-mobile
The road's my slave that's how I feel
I cruise alone I cruise real far
I don't love you I love my car
Oh, oh oh oh, Oh, oh oh oh
Cross Nevada at a 110
Highway 50 and there's nobody there
Sign says next sign thirty miles
I work all week, each penny saved
Buys more escape from home
I'd rather cruise around all day
Than save up for a move
Plow through rest area San-o-Lets,
Splat goes the lonely salesman
Wanking in the men's room
Buzzbomb buzzbomb tape up loud
Blue piss clinging to my windshield
Faster faster in my car
Buzzbomb is my pride and joy
King of the trailer court
Waiting for the perfect chick
Who'll love me for my car
I tell her why I'm cool
She coos back just what I like
When I pretend she's near
GUIT SOLO (tremolo pick all these notes)

Zip through Ely where Pat Nixon was born
The cops round here sure looking bored
Flashing sirens state patrol
They're scratching up my gorgeous paint job
They're shooting out my tires
Ain't no way to go to heaven
Buzzbomb cornered at the 7-11
