The Modern Lovers didn't do the version played in the picture, but it is their song. This song has only one chord, which makes it a bit easy to play. The basic riff is an E chord (an Em, I think) with a G bass note on the third beat. This is played over and over throughout the entire song. It goes like this: Em (?)

To be honest, I can not tell whether that is an E or an E minor, but I like the sound of the E minor better. Your call . . . The solos are in E, and consist of a lot of E's. Try the E minor pentatonic scale on the twelfth fret. ( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/b/burning_sensations/pablo_picasso_tab.html ) Here are the lyrics, with the chord: Em (see riff above) Well some people try to pick up girls And get called assholes This never happened to Pablo Picasso He could walk down your street And girls could not resist his stare and So Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole Well the girls would turn the color Of the avacado when he would drive Down their street in his El Dorado He could walk down you street And girls could not resist his stare Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole Not like you Alright Well he was only 5'3" But girls could not resist his stare Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole Not in New York Oh well be not schmuck, be not abnoxious, Be not bellbottom bummer or asshole Remember the story of Pablo Picasso He could walk down your street And girls could not resist his stare Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole Alright this is it Some people try to pick up girls And they get called an asshole This never happened to Pablo Picasso He could walk down your street And girls could not resist his stare and so Pablo Picasso was never called...
