Ramones/I Wanna Be Sedated Album: Road To Ruin I am amazed at all the incorrect versions of Ramones songs, so I figured I'd set em' straight. Johnny wails away on FULL barre chords, not power chords and plays only downstrokes- get the rhythm and the chords right. Tuning: Standard Intro: e|---------------------------------------| B|---------------------------------------| G|-8/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-8/9-9-----------| D|-8/9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-9-8/9-9-----------| A|-6/7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-7-6/7-7-777777777-| E|-----------------------------000000000-| Slight P.M. and crunch................. Verse-play the rhythm like this-the open E and the chord are not picked simutaneously.
