I can't find many Smash mouth tabs anywhere besides Walking
On the Sun, and this is my favorite track off of Fush Yu, so I figured
out most of it myself. It's so fun to play.

Verse chords (played with ska upstrokes)
F# G# B C#
E--2---4---2---4---
B--2---4---4---6---
G--3---5---4---6---
D--4---6---4---6---

(Verse:)
F# G# B
Lately I've been thinkin about the past, about the good
C# F#
times, and have they all come and gone. And are there more
G# B C#
years behind, then ahead, then I say to myself


(Chorus:(barre chords))
F# G# B F# B F# C#
Fuck it Let's Rock Let's Rock Let's Rock
(repeated)
F# G#
Lately I've been thinkin who's in charge, about who they
B C# F#
are, and are they lookin down and laughin hard. And are they
G# B
aliens or robots, or humanoids, or gods, I think I'm just
C#
paranoid

(repeat chorus)
(Bridge:)
A# B C#
What if someone takes my cat, what if she runs away what
F# G# A# B
if she gets hit. What if someone takes my chick, what if she
C# F# G# B C#
runs away I won't be blue, cause I know what to do.

(Solo) I'm lost on this one, anybody out there know it besides Greg
himself? I do know the solo is played over the chorus chords.
F# G#
Lately I've been thinkin about my vices, and about the
B C# F#
prices, that I'll later have to pay. I've been thinkin about
G# B C#
myself, and about my health then I say what the hell

(Repeat chorus twice, and that's it!)

I hope you like this, it sounds damn good to me. Let me know what you think.
