Tuning: E flat (half step down)

Social Distortion is a band that ALL people should 
like if they're involved in the rock scene. If you don't, then 
you probably have some crappy musical taste. This band is one 
of my all time favorites and they're one of few bands who still 
play good ol' rock n roll. What's not to like right?
This is my favorite song off of their latest album 
which was released about 5 years ago. (c'mon Mike, we're 
waiting for some new stuff! =). Fifth track, very easy to play. 
I'm surprised that this hasn't been PROPERLY tabbed out yet. 
Strums not exact. Listen for the changes. Let's go!!

   VERSE: I'll put the power chords for the newbies. but Mike loves to
         play open chord versions when he's singing.Listen for the 
         palm mutes also.)

That's it for that one guys! Easy stuff. Look forward to tabbing out

incomplete. Look out for more of my tabs. Let me know what you think. Have fun!
