This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Em F#m Dm A E F F#7add4

keep notes bent to pitch of fifteenth

until playing open notes.

The whole solo section is based on making a

almighty noise with open strings (no chords).

Use feedback, waggling the toggle switch, quickly

turning the volume knob on the guitar up and down

and scratching the strings with your pick or a

slide or anything, right from the bridge up to

the nut. Make it up as you go along and have fun.

Lyrics :

Esta pensando sobre viviendo con mi sister en New Jersey

Echo me dijo que es una vida buena

Enrique bien chevere

We'll keep well bred

We'll stay well fed

We'll have our sons

They will be all well hung

They'll come and play

Their friends will say

Your daddy's rich

Your mamma's a pretty thing

That maid Maria she is really OK

Vamos a jurgar por la playa

I keep gettin' friends

Looking like lesbiens

If we get bored

We'll move to California

They'll come and play

Their friends will say

Your daddy's rich

Your mamma's a pretty thing

That maid Maria she is really OK

Vamos a jurgar por la playa
