Blink 182 What's My Age Again Enema Of The State/Enema Strikes Back Tabbed by: Simon Mooney (lasttraintostafford@yahoo.co.uk) Hey peeps! This is my first tab and I think it sounds pretty darn close to how they play it. If you have a Flanger at your disposal, a slight flanging on the intro, Riff A and interlude sounds much more like the live version. Just play and be merry!

I wore cologne to get the feeling right We started making out, she took off my pants But then I turned on the TV But thats about the time she walked away from me No body likes you when your 23 And are still more amused by TV shows What the hell is A.D.D. My friends say I should act my age Whats my age again, whats my age again... And later on, on the drive home I called her mom from a payphone And I said I was the cops and her husbands in jail The state looks down on sodomy And thats about the time that bitch hung up on me Nobody likes you when your 23 And are still more amused by prank phone calls What the hell is caller I.D. My friends say I should act my age Whats my age again, whats my age again... And that's about the time she walked away from me Nobody likes you when your 23 And you still act like your in freshman year What the hell is wrong with me My friends say I should act my age Whats my age again, whats my age again... That's about the time that she broke up with me No one should take themselves so seriously With many years ahead to fall in line Why would you wish that on me I never want to act my age Whats my age again, whats my age again... Whats my age again? Any corrections, flames or just plain moans that Blink 182 songs are too easy/hard should all be directed to lasttraintostafford@yahoo.co.uk. However I know that this is 99.9% accurate because it sounds so much better than all of the other tabs around. I don't know the rhythems, its pretty easy if you know the song. Listen to the CD for the rhythem. Enjoy :)
