=====================================|=====================================|
This is a revision of the hardest button to button version 4 done on November
18th by Andrew Gyorkos and Marlon Chaplin. The same transcribers as version 4.
There is no timing included and I've fixed all the guitar parts and corrected
some mistakes too.
===========================================================================|
If you can, replace the A string with a Bass string. Keep a constant beat
throughout the song too. If there are still mistakes please email me and I'll
fix them. Also thanks go to Paul Kendrick for a bit of help with this tab. For
timing, or anything else, look to the song for help. Other than that enjoy!

Verse 1

we started living in an old house
my ma gave birth and we were checking it out
it was a baby boy
so we bought him a toy
it was a ray gun
and it was 1981

we named him 'Baby'
he had a toothache
he started crying
it sounded like an earthquake
it didn't last long
because I stopped him
i grabbed a rag doll
and stuck some little pins in it

Verse 2

Now we're a family
and we're alright now
we got money and a little place
to fight now
we don't know you
and we don't owe you
but if you see us around
I got something else to show you

Verse 3

well its easy when you don't know 
better
you think it's sleazy? 
then put it in a short letter
we keep warm
but there's just something wrong 
when you
just feel that you're the hardest little button to
button 

Verse 4

I had opinions
that didn't matter
I had a brain 
that felt like pancake batter
I got a backyard
with nothing in it
except a stick
a dog
and a box with something in it 

the hardest button to button (x12)
