40 Oz To Freedom by Sublime
40 Oz To Freedom
[Intro]
G C D
G C D
[Verse 1]
G
You've got your hair permed
C
You've got your red dress on
G C
Screamin' that second gear was such a turn on
G C
And the fog forming on my window tells me that the morning here
G C
And you'll be gone before too long
[Verse 2]
G
Who taught you those new tricks?
C
Damn I shouldn't start that talk,
G C
but life is one big question when your starin' at the clock
G C G
And the answers always waiting at the liquor store, 40 oz to Freedom,
C
so I'll take that walk.
[Chorus 1]
D G Bb F G
And I know that ohhhh...I'm not comin back
Bb F G
Ohhhh not going back
Bb F G
God knows not going back
[Verse 3]
G C
and you look so fine when you lie it just don't show,
G C
That I know which way the wind blows
G C G
A 40 oz to freedom is the only chance I have to feel good,
C
even though I feel bad
[Chorus 2]
D G Bb F G
And I know that ohhhh...I'm not comin back
Bb F G
Ohhhh not going back
Bb F G
God knows not going back
Bb F G
God knows I'm not going back

version 3
Tuning: standard
Intro/verse:
The rhythm is easy to figure out. Another guitar plays little lead licks. They are very
hard to figure out but they are mainly on the 3rd, 5th, and 6th frets on the 6th, 5th
and 4th strings, so you can improvise your way through it.

A|--5----5----8----3------------------------|
E|--3----3----6----1------------------------|
During the part where it is just the voices talking, you he plays pretty random licks
on the same frets and strings as in the first verse. The second verse is the same as the first.
The guitar solo is 2 guitars. I couldn't figure out exactly what bot of them are doing,
but I think I did pretty well. The way I tabbed it out is basically correct, but if it
doesn't sound right just try play other licks in the same area as the one I have:

Verse 1
You've got your hair permed
You've got your red dress on
Screamin' that second gear was such a turn on
And the fog forming on my window tells me that the morning here
And you'll be gone before too long
Who taught you those new tricks?
Damn I shouldn't start that talk,
but life is one big question when your starin at the clock
And the answers always waiting at the liquor store, 40 oz to Freedom,
so I'll take that walk.
Chorus
And I know that ohhhh...I'm not comin back
Ohh not going back
God knows not going back
Verse 2
You look so fine when you lie it just don't show,
That I know which way the wind blows
40 oz to freedom is the only chance I have to feel good,
even though I feel bad
Chorus
And I know that ohhhh...I'm not comin back
Ohh not going back
God knows I'm not going back
God knows I'm not going back
