Official NOFX Tablature & Sheet Music »

Artist: NOFX
Album: Pump Up the Valuum
Song: What’s the Matter With Parents Today?
Tabbed By: MaxHammett

Not that many riffs in this song, so as a result,
It’s pretty easy to play; although it is really
Hard to show the timing right in tabs, but I’ve
Tried anyway.

Key:
/ - pick slide
x – mute
)) – Let Ring

Interlude, for guitar one is just a different strumming

|E|----------------------------------3-1-1-11-11-3-3-33-33-5))-|

you might really just need to listen to the CD to get the
proper timing, as this tab ain’t very good for that. I did try
though.

Any praise, abuse, or anything, jus send to max_hammett_51@hotmail.com.
Plz rate the tab will ya?
