If you listen to the music, you'll get thehang of it and be able to put in the little quirks that Jack does. This is thebasic, but correct way to play. You can do a lot with it.Here's the complete song, with the lyrics.Intro: Intro Parts 1, 2, 3, 2, 4, 2, 3, 2, 4Verse 1:(Repeat Verse Part 1 twice, then start singing)(Verse Part 1 repeats until specified)Lookin' at himselfAnd wishin' he was someone elseBecause the posters on the wallThey don't look like him at all.So he ties it up, he tucks it inHe pulls it back and gives a grinLaughin' at himselfBecause he knows he ain't loved at all.He gets his(Verse Part 2a)Courage from the canIt makes him feel like a manBecause he's lovin' all the ladiesBut the ladies don't love him at(Verse Part 2b)all.And(Verse Part 2a)When he's not drunkHe's only stuck on himselfAnd then he has the nerveTo say he needs a decent(Verse Part 2b)GirlVerse 2:(Verse Part 1)Lookin' at herselfAnd wishin' she was someone elseBecause the body of the dollyDon't look like hers at allSo she straps it on, she sucks it in,She throws it up, and gives a grin,Laughin' at herselfBecause she knows she's ain't that at all.(Verse Part 2a)Caught up in the trendsWell, the truth began to bendAnd the next thing you know, manThere just ain't no truth left at(Verse Part 2b)All.'Cuz when the(Verse Part 2a)Pretty girl walksShe walks so proudAnd when the pretty girl laughsOh man, she laughs so(Verse Part 2b)Loud.Bridge:E D C# Be|------7-7-7-m--x---5-5-5----4-4-4-m--x---2-2-2-| B|------9-9-9-m--x---7-7-7----6-6-6-m--x---4-4-4-| G|------9-9-9-m--7---7-7-7----6-6-6-m--4---4-4-4-| D|------9-9-9-m--7---7-7-7----6-6-6-m--4---4-4-4-| A|------7-7-7-m------5-5-5----4-4-4-m------2-2-2-| E|--7---7-7-7-m----5-5-5-5-4--4-4-4-m----2-2-2-2-|d d d u u d d u d d u u d d u(mute)And (E) if it ain't this that it's that(D) As a matter of(C#) Fact, she hasn't had a day (mute)(B) To relax(Slide back to E)Since she's lost (mute)(D) Her(C#) Ability to think (mute)(B) Clear-(Slide up neck)(Intro Part 2)-ly(Intro Parts 3, 2, 4)Outro:Well I'm an(Verse Part 1 repeats)energetic, apatheticVersion of another person,Check out my outsides,There ain't nothin' in hereWell I'm aSuperficial, systematic,Music, television addict,Check out my outsides,There ain't nothin' in(Verse Part 2a)Here comes another one,Just like the other one,Lookin' at himself and wishin'He was someone else,Because the(Verse Part 2b)Posters on the wall,They don't uh look uh like uh him.He ties up, he tucks it in,He Pulls it back and gives a grin,(Verse Part 1)Laughin' at himselfBecause he knows he ain't loved at all.He knows he ain't loved at all.Where he starts Verse Part 2b is difficult, so I'll just go through it.Because the-e|-----------------------------------------x-------------------| B|------------------------------------x----x-------x--x-x------| G|------------------------------------x----9-------9--9-9------| D|----------------9h11--p9---------9--x------------9--9-9------| A|------------11-------------h11------x------------7--7-7------| E|-0----------------------------------x-------7----7--7-7------|d d u-posters on the wall, they don't uh look uh like him.And so on.When I was learning this song, this part took me the longest. It's tough. Everynote is above the beginning of it's corresponding word, like you play the A stringon the 11th while you say "the". This part is perfect, I promise, and you can playit just like Jack of you follow exactly.Enjoy,Todd
