VERSE
Eadgbe
D bar chord on every beat of the bar-> x57775

(i would appreciate a bassist to work out Paul Simonon's bass lines
over the verse)

CHORUS

Same as the intro but after Joe Strummer says
"they have no rhythm...Rock!!", there is a A Bar chord strummed up
and down quickly which is also used to end the song.

Let me know where i fucked up doing this tab!

"if Adolf Hitler were here today, they'd send a Limousine anyway"
