M16 Tab

by Descendents





  It is hard to hear the guitar in the song because the bass comes out so
strong in the mix but this is as close as I can get and any suggestions or
comments are welcome.

The above is basicly the whole song,
The guitars rest while the bass takes
the intro for two measures.
Here is the song flow:
*Intro*
(W/Bass)
riff A
*Verse 1*
rhy fig 1-(3x)
riff A
*Chorus*
rhy fig 2
*Verse 2*
rhy fig 1-(3x)
riff A
*Chorus*
rhy fig 2
*outro*
rhy fig 3

Verse 1= Go Shoot your M-16
              Go Shoot Your M-16
              Go Shoot Your M-16
              I'm not gonna live your American Dream

Chorus= Army life is right for me
             Kill to save democracy
             Got a rebel in my sights
             Moneys worth more that his life
             So Kill,  It's Fun

Verse 2= Shoot him, Youre better than him
              Shoot him, in the eye
              Shoot him, if it gives you a thrill
              Just like a kid, only now it's for real

  This song may not be totally right, but unlike some
of the other Descendents songs I've seen here it is very
easy to read.  I will send more if this goes up on the tabs.
