The Vandals - Jackass

This is a very simple song so I have just written the parts so you figure out where they go, tis simple enough!!

Also the timing is not written so again listen and learn from the song

Verse 1/intro (two times through muted, the let ring)

e|-------------|:---------------------|
B|-------------|:---------------------|
G|-----5--4--5-|:---------------------|
D|-----5--4--5-|:---0--5--0--1--0-----|
A|-----3--2--3-|:---2--5--2--3--2-----|
E|-------------|:---2--3--2--3--2-----|
      repeat x 3       ^
                       |The guitar in the song stays on g5 but i think it sounds better with
                       |Following the bass line

Following Verses

E|---------1-1-------3-3-3-3-3-3-3-3----|:

(This is followed by the same chords but strummed constantly - if that makes sense?)

bridgy bit!! ( Well it was cute at the party at the lake...)

G|--------------10-10-10---5-5-5-----------|:-------------------------|
D|------7-7-7---10-10-10---5-5-5--5-5-5----|:-----7-7-7-3-3-3-5-5-5---|

E|------5-5-5---------------------3-3-3----|:-----5-5-5-1-1-1-3-3-3---|

The song plays out by doing a combination of the intro and the bridgy bit!! With a half solo jobby which is written around the bass line (which is pretty much identical to the guitar!) anyway the bass is

G|-----5--4--5--|:--9--12--9--10--9---|
