Tuning: Standard

Ok, after working on this for a while, I can see why there aren't many Fishbone
tabs. I've tried here to outline the major sections of the song, most of the
non-solo riffs, and some of the general structure, but some of the timing and
changes are a little tricky.

Opening Riff:

------10-12-10-----------------------------------------|
---------------12-12-12-10-12-13-12-12-10-12-----------|
---------------------------------------------12-11-7-9-|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|
-------------------------------------------------------|

The ska chopping for the intro goes back and forth from Am to G.

So, Intro riff, Am-G, Intro riff again, Am-G chopping then:

(3x)
----------------------------------|
----------------------------------|
----------------------------------|
-9-9-9-10-10-10-12-12-12-10-10-10-|
-7-7-7-8--8--8--10-10-10-8--8--8--|
----------------------------------|

-------|
-------|
-------|
-9-7-9-|
-7-5-7-|
-------|

Next, hang on Am, then Am-G# and into the main chopping riff, which is I-IV-V in
G#: G#-C#-D#.

Party at ground zero
A B-movie starring you
And the world will turn to flowing pink vapor stew

The next change in the guitar part is when he follows the vocal line:

Please do not fear, cause Fishbone is here to say (say what?)

Hang on G# for the first turn around then it's the main riff again, I-IV-V in G#.
