Roots radical Rancid

[C]To[C]ok the[F] 6[F]'th [G]str[F]eet[C] b[C]us... (?)

(The rest of the verses are also all C F G F C)

Lead in to Chorus:

G------  F------  D--------

(No idea of the lyrics)

Chorus:

[C]Give 'em the boot, the root[F]s, the radical[G]s...

[C]Give 'em the boot, yo[F]u know I'm [G]a radical

[C]Give 'em the boot, (?)[F] [G]

C    G-G-G-G

...My stereo.

Bridge:

During the "yeah, yeah" part, it is an F barre chord (2'nd family) played at the 8'th fret.

The little riff can be improvised out of a blues scale also at the 8'th fret. At the end of the

bridge (the word "yeah" is screamed), the chord switches to a G chord (2'nd family)

played at the 10'th fret.

Outro is the same as the chorus.

#When I first tabbed this, I did it from an early version of it that was
#released as an addition to Let's Go.  The version that is on "Wolves" is
#almost the same, except that all the chords are 1/2 step higher.  Here
#are the lyrics:
#
#Roots Radicals:
#(off of "And out come the wolves"
#
#Took the 60 bus out of downtown Campbell,
#Ben Zanotto he was on there
#He was waiting for me.
#All the punk rockers and the moon stompers,
#Are out on the corner where they're sparing for change.
#I started thinkin'
#You know I started drinkin'
#I don't remember too much of that day.
#Something struck me funny when we ran out of money,
#Where do you go now when your only 15?
#
#With the music exectution and the talk of revolution
#It bleeds in me...And it goes-
#
#Give em the boot,
#The roots, the radicals.
#Give em the boot,
#You know I'm a radical.
#Give em the boot,
#The roots the reggae on my stereo.
#
#The radio was playin'
#Desmon Dekker was singin'
#On the 43'd bus as we climb up the hill.
#Nothing incomin' but the reggae drummin'
#And we all come from unloving homes.
#Why even bother,
#I pick up the bottle.
#Hey Mr. Bus driver let these people on.
#Rude girl Carol was a mini-skirt girl,
#My blurry vision saw nothing wrong.

#I don't have time (or know) the lyrics of this song for posting, but the guitar part won't
#be hard to figure out if you play it with the CD.

#Verses:
#(1'st verse is sharp and each chord is heard.  The rest are played all down-stroke, punk
