WHEATUS - "teenage dirtbag" Tablature

Official WHEATUS Tablature & Sheet Music »

Song: Teenage Dirtabg
Band: Wheatus
Tabbed: Chris. Willdridge (willdridge@hotmail.com)

Comments: It's not absolutely correct, but this gives you a general idea of how it's played and, to be honest, most people won't notice if it's slightly wrong. Watch out to the single note stuff (which isn't tabbed) during the chorus and enjoy those tickets to "Iron Maiden baby, oo-oo-oo-oo-oo", (makes sense if you know the song...).

[E] [B] [E] [A]
Her name is Lowal, I have a dream about her.
[E] [B] [E] [A]
She rings my bell, I've got gym class in half an hour.
[E] [B] [E] [A]
Oh how she rocks, in kids and tube socks,
[E] [A] [B] [B]
But she doesn't know who I am,
[E] [A] [B]
And she doesn't she give a damn about me.

[E] [A] [B] [E] [B]
'Cos I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby,
[E] [A] [B] [E] [B]
Yea I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby,
[E] [A] [B]
Listen' to Iron Maiden baby with me
Oo-oo-oo-ee-ee.

Her boyfriend's a dick, he brings a gun to school,
And he'd simply kick my ass if he knew the truth,
He lives on my block and drives a Nirock.
But he doesn't know who I am,
And he doesn't give a damn about me.

'Cos I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby,
Yea I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby,
Listen' to Iron Maiden baby with me,
Oo-oo-oo-ee-ee.


[E5][B5][A5] [E5][B5][A5] {Second time the A is an octave lower, play this through the chorus).
Oo-yea, dirtbag,
[E5] [B5] [A5] [Ab5] (This bit hard to explain)
No, she doesn't know what she's missing!
Oo-yea, dirtbag,
No, she doesn't know what she's missing!



Man I feel like mold, it's prom night I and I all lonely
Low and behold, she's walking over to me,
This must be fake - my lip starts to shake
How does she know who I am? And why does she give a damn about me?

She said
"I've got two tickets to Iron Maiden baby,
Come with my Friday, don't say mabye,
I'm just a teenage dirtbag baby like you,
Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo."

Oo-yea, dirtbag,
No, she doesn't know what she's missing!
Oo-yea, dirtbag,
No, she doesn't know what she's missing!
Yea-aa.

[E5] [B5] [A5] [Ab5] [F#5] [E]
