       repeat this intro several times   
    it will also be the verse progression
e|----------0---0---------------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5-------x-----2~-0--------------------|
G|----------x\--x---------x--x-------2------------------|
D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0----2--x--------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3--3--x--------------------------|
                                ^ bend that note back and forth
  up and down.. the puppy's..fleas..everywhere
e|----------0---0---------------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5-------x-----2~-0--------------------|
G|----------x\--x---------x--x-------2------------------|
D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0----2--x--------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3--3--x--------------------------|

               'cause of original sin
e|----------0---0---------------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5-------x-----2~-0--------------------|
G|----------x\--x---------x--x-------2------------------|
D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0----2--x--------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3--3--x--------------------------|

for the verse preceeding the chorus, play this:

   knock knock.. on the door.. nobody in here
e|----------0---0---------------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5-------x-----2~-0--------------------|
G|----------x\--x---------x--x-------2------------------|
D|-------5--5---x---------x--x---------2----------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0----2--x--------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3--3--x--------------------------|

            look in the mirror my friend
e|----------0---0-0-----------------------------------|
B|----------0---3/5----x-----------------------------|
G|----------x\--x------x-----------------------------|
D|-------5--5---x------x-----------------------------|
A|-------0--x---3/5--0-2-----------------------------|
E|--3/5-----5----------3-----------------------------|

the chorus is simple:
the strumming is tricky but you will get it
prechorus:

 I don't understand... 
e|-1------3-----5---3---1--0--1---3-----|
B|-1------3-----5---3---1--0--1---3-----|
G|-2------4-----6---4---2--1--2---4-----|
D|-3------5-----7---5---3--2--3---5-----|
A|-3------5-----7---5---3--2--3---5-----|
E|-1------3-----5---3---1--0--1---3-----|

chorus:
                     what would you say
e|--------0--0-0-------------------------------------|
b|--------0--3/5-------------------------------------|
G|--------x\-x------x--------------------------------|
D|-----5--5--x------x--------------------------------|
A|-----0--x--3/5--0-2--------------------------------|
E|-3/5----5---------3--------------------------------|

don't drop the big one
e|--------0--0-0-------------------------------------|
b|--------0--3/5-------------------------------------|
G|--------x\-x------x-x-x----------------------------|
D|-----5--5--x------x-x-x----------------------------|
A|-----0--x--3/5--0-2-2-2----------------------------|
E|-3/5----5---------3-3-3----------------------------|

...monkey on a string
e|--------0--0-0-------------------------------------|
b|--------0--3/5-------------------------------------|
G|--------x\-x------x-x-x----------------------------|
D|-----5--5--x------x-x-x----------------------------|
A|-----0--x--3/5--0-2-2-2----------------------------|
E|-3/5----5---------3-3-3----------------------------|

the only difference in the verse play is this:


every dog has its day every day has its way of being forgotten.. 
e|-------------------------------------------------------|
B|-------------------------------------------------------|
G|--------------------------x-----------x----------------|
D|-5-----5------------------x-----------x----------------|
A|-x-----x------------------2-----------2----------------|
E|-5-----5------------------3-----------3----------------|

then the jam goes like this:

e|---x---------------------------------------------------|
B|---8-8--2----------------------------------------------|
G|---7-6--2--3--4----------7/9---------------------------|
D|---7-x--2--2--x----------x-x---------------------------|
A|---5-7-----3--2----------5/7---------------------------|
E|-0---5----------0-0-3p-0-------------------------------|
