Here is a better interpretation of I Wanna Be Sedated by the Ramones
than either of the ones that are currently posted on the mirrors site.
I W a n n a B e S e d a t e d
Intro: E (2 measures) - slide into it from a D#
Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go I wanna be sedated
Nothin' to do and no where to go-o I wanna be sedated
Just get me to the airport put me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry before I go insane
I can't control my fingers I can't control my brain
Oh no no no no no
Lead guitar picks 8th notes on the open high E string over E A B E
chords (1 measure each)
E (2 measures) - slide into it from a D#. Then it goes up a *full* step
to:
Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go I wanna be sedated
Nothin' to do and no where to go-o I wanna be sedated
Just put me in a wheelchair get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry before I gotta go
I can't control my fingers I can't control my toes
Oh no no no no no
F# (2 measures)
Repeat last verse, then:
Ba-ba-bamp-ba Ba-ba-ba-bamp-ba I wanna be sedated
Ba-ba-bamp-ba Ba-ba-ba-bamp-ba I wanna be sedated
repeat and let F# ring to end

Title: I Wanna Be Sedated
Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours ago
I wanna be sedated
Nothin' to do and no where to go-o-o
I wanna be sedated
Just get me to the airport put me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry before I go insane
I can't control my fingers I can't control my brain
Oh no no no no no
Ba-ba-bamp-ba
Ba-ba-ba-bamp-ba
I wanna be sedated
The 'solo' part is:
Over the E E E E A A A A B B B B E E E E part.
then it goes up a *full* step so that the chords are:
hopefully, that's enough explanation of this one.
Distort heavily, and make up your own lyrics as needed.

> Sounds like I Wanna Be Sedated by the Ramones.
Oh, what the hell...
Twenty, twenty, twenty four hours to go
I wanna be sedated.
Nothing to do no way to go home
I wanna be sedated
Just take me to the airport
Put me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry
Before I go insane
I can't control my fingers
I can't control my brain
Oh no oh oh oh no
etc.
