Tabbed by: Matt Whittle

Tuning: standard [EADG]

This is my first tab, so my apologies if it's way off 
the mark. I love this song, and it's pretty easy to play 
compared to BB's other stuff (that's probably cos it's 
not a BB song, it's a Devo song). I'm not sure what tuning 
Jared uses, but I found it easy to play in E, so I tabbed 
it to that. Some bits may be wrong, and I may have missed 
some bits, but it sounds alright to me :) Enjoy.
