Mattersville Lyrics
by NOFX
This is my first tab/chord. I wanted to play some NoFX songs
but they're either all tabs or they're for two guitar parts.
I made a chord version of mattersville and it sounds really
good on an acoustic too; thats what I wrote the chords with.
I'm not sure what the opening chord is but I think it's a high
E. Also the chord Mike drops to from the 3rd note in the chorus (G)
in the song I am not sure what it is, but I think its an F or F#,
I play D it sounds good alone but way off if playing w/ the song.
Anyway, any questions or comments can be sent to me at
keydemographic@yahoo.com
Enjoy!

Verse:
Chorus:
E, C, G, F#
E, C, G, F#
Verse1:
There's a place some of us choose to live
Gated community cops can't come in
A neighborhood for punks over the hill
We spend our golden years in Mattersville
We can do whatever we want whenever we please
There's always a keg of beer and a block of cheese
We got charams,pinball,asteroids,
Space invaders,and missile command...
Chorus:
E C G D (or F# ?)
We will grow old together
E C G D (or F# ?)
We will play bridge and texas hold 'em
Duane and Stevie Cab they still skateboard
But most of us lawn bowl and shuffleboard
We may be getting ripe but we ain't bored
Verse2:
We got a blackboard with some rules and laws
Hefe's got an 18 car garage
Most the cars are smashed, but so is spike
Twice a week on karaoke night
Eric Melvin lives next door to me
Limo and the locknecks head security
At the end of my cul de sac
Davey Havok's house is painted black
Chorus:
We will grow old and fatter
We got our ville, so what else matters
Trashy, Mod, and Kath are staying up
Nathan, Matt, and Dad are passing out
When California cracks we're goin' down
