Weezer: Surf Wax America

Here's Surf Wax America. For all those who don't have the Weezer
album, I highly recommend it, especially if you like Nirvana.

{With intro}

The sea is foamin' like a bottle of beer
The wave is comin' but I ain't got no fear
I'm waxing down so that I'll go real fast
I'm waxing down because it's really a blast

{Without intro/With Distortion}
D/A (x00232@1)     C/G (3x555x@1)          GI'm (320003@1)going surfing 'cuz I don't like your face

I'll take my board                            If you play alone, an E/BC/G             D/A (x00232@1)                         sounds better
And when you're out of fuel

 or maybe she doesn't know what to get;
 But why does it seem like every year's
 a toolbox Christmas?"
