Somebody Hates Me - Reel Big Fish Transcribed by Sean Lewis 'salnys@hotmail.com" I've arranged a 2 guitar intro so you can see the variances. The U's and D's above the chords are Up-strokes and Down-strokes to help people get a "feel" for how to play the chord passages efficiently. Take note of the chord slides. They're crucial to the feel. Have fun.

Everything you NEED is there. I know I got a little lazy towards the end. I'm well aware of the extra layers towards the end of the bridge. AND the solo over the intro riff. I'll leave that up to you guys. Enjoy.
