use sweep picking to get the fast effect.

The second chorus is the same as the first except

This last bit is played extremely fast, either strum it or sweep
pick it. And the tabs probably wrong too but that's just how I
attempt to play it!


Chorus:

Same as the first chorus but when he repeats the "gotta
cut loose from my, gotta cut loose from my..." but you
keep playing E and F#, then finish with this bit:

"Miii-iii-ii-iii-iiand, you're in my mii-ii-and, all the time..."

Repeat these parts until the end, where you end on a G#m.
"Staff at the Pacific nuclear research facility have denied
the rumour that the case of missing plutonium was in fact 
stolen from their vault two weeks ago..."

I know this tab is nowhere near 100% accurate, but it sounds ok
and it's fun to play. Any questions, comments or corrections to
