What a funky song! Guitar 1 is a clean electric that hardly features (however
there is a chance that it gains distortion at some points and duplicates guitar
2). Guitar plays the main parts of the song! :)

Guitar 1 - Clean Electric
Guitar 2 - Distorted Electric

Many's the time I've been thinking about changing my ways 
But when it gets right down to it it's the same drunken haze
I'm serving a sentence to write life's sentences 
It's only when I'm out of it I make sense of this

Chorus (no guitar other than indicated)
======
Just for the record I'm gonna put it down
Just for the record I'm gonna change my life around

Verse

Just a revolutionary with a pseudonym 
Just a bar room dancer on my final fling 
Just another writer paying off my dues
Just finding inspiration well that's my excuse

Chorus (no guitar other than indicated)

Just for the record I'm gonna put it down
Just for the record I'm gonna change my life around

But I've got no discipline got no self control 
Just a little less painful here when my back's against the wall

When you say I got a problem that's a certainty 
But I can put it all right down to eccentricity 
It's just for the record it's just a passing phase
Just for the record I can stop any day
