Song: Let's Rock Band: Smash mouth Album: Fush Yu Mang (1997) Written by Smash mouth Transcribed by Luke Knox ([email protected])
I can't find many Smash mouth tabs anywhere besides Walking On the Sun, and this is my favorite track off of Fush Yu, so I figured out most of it myself. It's so fun to play.
Verse chords (played with ska upstrokes) F#G#BC# E--2---4---2---4--- B--2---4---4---6--- G--3---5---4---6--- D--4---6---4---6--- A------------------ E------------------ (Verse:) F#G#B Lately I've been thinkin about the past, about the good C#F# times, and have they all come and gone. And are there more G#BC# years behind, then ahead, then I say to myself
(Chorus:(barre chords)) F#G#BF#BF#C# Fuck it Let's Rock Let's Rock Let's Rock (repeated) F#G# Lately I've been thinkin who's in charge, about who they BC#F# are, and are they lookin down and laughin hard. And are they G#B aliens or robots, or humanoids, or gods, I think I'm just C# paranoid
(repeat chorus) (Bridge:) A#BC# What if someone takes my cat, what if she runs away what F#G#A#B if she gets hit. What if someone takes my chick, what if she C#F#G#BC# runs away I won't be blue, cause I know what to do.
(Solo) I'm lost on this one, anybody out there know it besides Greg himself? I do know the solo is played over the chorus chords. F#G# Lately I've been thinkin about my vices, and about the BC#F# prices, that I'll later have to pay. I've been thinkin about G#BC# myself, and about my health then I say what the hell
(Repeat chorus twice, and that's it!)
I hope you like this, it sounds damn good to me. Let me know what you think.
