Monkey see, monkey do
I don't know why I'd - rather be dead than cool
I don't know why - every line ends in rhyme
I don't know why - less is more, love is blind
I don't know why

Then intro riff
Then fade out into the fill and let the last note ring
Ending:
This is optional. However, you can hear that this is part of the actual song.
At the ending, while the last note is ringing, start to de-tune
your low E string until it is about one octave down from normal
low E. When it is that low continue to strum it until the song
is over.
Monkey see, monkey do
I don't know why I'd - rather be dead than cool
I don't know why - every line ends in rhyme
I don't know why - less is more, love is blind
I don't know why
