Alrighty. This isn't the first tab I've written (actually, it's probably around 
200 now), but this is the first one I've bothered to submit to someone.
I don't know the intro to this kick-ass song 'cause, well, I dunno. Could be
2 guitars, could be a cool ProLogic effect, could be just a funky chord I don't 
know how to do. Either way, here's the bread-and-butter of the song.

                 A5          A/G#5
Did some time in Tokyo, in a dojo,
          F#5            E5lo
Learned karate, and kung-fu,
    D5           E5hi
And judo, 'cause you know:

     N.C.          A5
     I'm a ***in' samurai
              A/G#5
     From the darkside,
            F#5
     Eating fried rice,
           E5lo
     And I lie.
             D5
     I'm not Bruce Lee,
             A5
     I'm not chinese,
              B5
     I'm on a trapeze,
             E5hi
     And I'm free...

       A5                A/G#5
In Nagasaki I'm drinkin' saki,
             F#5          E5lo
And watchin' hockey in my Jockey's,
          D5             E5hi
And I'm a servant to technology.

     N.C.          A5
     I'm a ***in' samurai
              A/G#5
     From the darkside,
            F#5
     Eating fried rice,
           E5lo
     And I lie.
             D5
     I'm not Bruce Lee,
             A5
     I'm not chinese,
              B5
     I'm on a trapeze,
             E5hi
     And I'm free...

      A5               A/G#5
In my Nissan I put the priest on,
      F#5                        E5lo
And I head out on the highway to Budakon.
       D5              E5hi
I'm lambasted and domo wasted.


     N.C.          A5
     I'm a ***in' samurai
              A/G#5
     From the darkside,
            F#5
     Eating fried rice,
           E5lo
     And I lie.
             D5
     I'm not Bruce Lee,
             A5
     I'm not chinese,
              B5
     I'm on a trapeze,
             E5hi
     And I'm free...
