Band Name: Sum 41 Song: No Brains Tabber: poon_58@hotmail.com Tuning: Guitar 1 - Drop D [D-A-D-G-B-e] Guitar 2 - Drop D [D-A-D-G-B-e] This is a good song with high intensity... and a good solo. It sounds as if Dave uses a whammy pedal for the last bit of it to give it that sound. For some parts I used sixteenth (s) eight (E) notes to help you on parts that might sound confusing in terms of strumming. The intro of this song is the verse. . = Palm Mute ~ = Hold Note / = Slide () = Ghost Note x = Mute String = Harmonic VERSE ========== Guitars 1 & 2 F#5 E5 D5 A5 E5 s s E s s E e|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| B|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| G|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| D|-4-4-4-2-4---4-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-7-7-7-7-7/----2-2-2-------------| A|-4-4-4-2-4---4-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-7-7-7-7-7/----2-2-2-------------| D|-4-4-4-2-4---4-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-7-7-7-7-7/----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-| . . . . . . / Play x2 / ----------------------------------------------------------------- F#5 E5 D5 A5 E5 e|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| B|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| G|---------------------------------|---------------------------------| D|-4-4-4-2-4---4-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-7-7-7-7-7/----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-| A|-4-4-4-2-4---4-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-7-7-7-7-7/----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-| D|-4-4-4-2-4---4-----0-0-0-0-0-0-0-|-7-7-7-7-7/----2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-| PRE-CHORUS ========== Guitar 2 D5 E5 F#5 D5 E5 e|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| B|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| G|----------------|----------------|----------------|----------------| D|-0~-----0~------|-2~-------------|-4~-----4~------|-0~-----2~------| A|-0~-----0~------|-2~-------------|-4~-----4~------|-0~-----2~------| D|-0~-----0~------|-2~-------------|-4~-----4~------|-0~-----2~------| CHORUS ========== Play each part x2.

LYRICS =-=-=-=-=-= Can't step in my way Head first and love and dismay It's like beating the dead I can't stop going out on my head Whatever this could be I never know I never said it'd be the end all to be all I hate you today I can't find a way Don't drag me down now Goodbye I've had enough frustration I won't get stuck Goodbye This dead end situation Is just not worth my time It's no better today I never thought it would end up this way You've got something to say Don't want to hear it if it gets in my way All this confusion, WANDERING, SO OVERWHELMED ALL disillusion seems so clear Can't find your conclusion to supporting evolution Things aren't what they appear So what's the point of this now I know you too well We're running backwards Goodbye I've had enough frustration I won't get stuck Goodbye This dead end situation Is just not worth my time But waiting so frustrating I'm so sick of All this tension not to mention I'm so sick of DON'T FAKE it YOU won't make it Just save yourself this trouble GET DOWN AND PRAY FOR YOURSELF Cause I'm just fine You speak for all of us when You can't be heard I bet you haven't listened To not one word You speak for all of us when You can't be heard I bet you haven't listened To not one word Goodbye I've had enough frustration I won't get stuck Goodbye This dead end situation Is just not worth my time But waiting so frustrating I'm so sick of All this tension not to mention I'm so sick of Sick of you
