M O T A by Offspring
-from the album Ixnay on the Hombre

Okay, I've tabbeed this because I got sick of looking around
the olga and finding stuff. It took me around 5 minutes to
tab this, so you should be able to work this song out in 5 min
using this tab. :)

And please leave me a e-mail at leech@webexpress.net.au and comment
about this tab.

Well, I'm not sure if the words are 100% correct, so if not please
mail me at leech@webexpress.net.au and get me right

[Intro]
Mota!
[Riff1]
[Riff2] Everyday, well it's the same
That bong that's on the table starts to call
My name
I take a hit and zone out again
I'll be paranoid and hungry by a quarter to ten

[Riff1] Watching reruns on my TV
I'm laughing off my ass at Three's Company
I don't know if I'm understood
Buy hearing Jimmy Buffett never sounded so good

-CHORUS-
[CHORUS]Your memory's gone and so is your life (your life)
Mota Boy
But losing out just never felt so right
Your enemy's you and so is your life (your life)
Mota Boy
But losing out might feel okay all night
Mota!

[Riff2] I'm driving down to the barrio
Going 15 miles an hour cause I'm already stoned
Give the guy a twenty and wait in the car
He tosses me a baggie then he runs real far

[Riff1] I take a hit but it smells like a clove
Oh fuck I got a baggie of oregano
This ritual is destroying me
But I guess it could be worse
It could be methedrine

[CHORUS]Your memory's gone and so is your life (your life)
Mota Boy
But losing out just never felt so right
Your enemy's you and your couch is your life
(Your Life)
Mota Boy
[Outro] But losing out might take
Losing out might take you all night
Mota!
