Okay, this is a pretty easy song.  There are two guitars playing at most 
times.  Gtr.1 (Dave Pirener) plays first position chords, while Gtr.2 
(Dan Murphy) plays barre chords. On the verses hit D chord once then 
palm mute it and strum.  Then, when you play G upstroke it once.  Just 
listen to the CD, you'll get it.

Verse I
D                                                             G
She walks into the outhouse, the cold night breathes into her face

D                                                                G 
The flies are standing still now, the moon it spills through the place


Chorus I
               C                   G          D       
And she starts wondering what it's like to be liked by everyone, and

    C         G      D                     C             G     
And like everyone be just like anyone, who just wants to be so

D                 D
Just like anyone, just like anyone

Verse II

D                                                                 G
She reaches through the darkness, her fingers touch the porcelain seat

D                                                                 G
She spins and pulls her pants down, the cold air holds her like a thief

Chorus II

               C                   G             D               
And she starts wondering what they mean, do they just mean to be mean

    C                  G              D                    
And thinking about the scene, do they just want to be seen

C          G        D                 D
Try not to seem so, Just like anyone, Just like anyone

D(w/bridge riff)                                           G
The door comes screeching open, she walks into the evening air

D                             
She disappears in the darkness all that's left is the faint smell

C                   G          D                     C         G   
Wondering what it's like to be liked by everyone and like everyone

   D                    C             G     D    
be just like anyone and just wants to be so just like anyone

    C                   G             D              
And wondering what they mean, do they just mean to be mean,  

    C                  G              D
And thinking about the scene, do they just want to be seen

C          G       D                 C         G   D 
Try not to seem so just like anyone (just like anyone)
