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

ODDFELLOWS LOCAL 151

tabbed by Steve Vetter (vetters@vax1.elon.edu)

Intro and the verse is played with the following:

"C" Chord

(palm mute)

------------------0--0--0-------|
------------------1--1--1-------|
------------------0--0--0-------|
------------------2--2--2-------|
------------------3--3--3-------|
--0--0--0--0--------------------|

-------5---------------|
-----------------------|
-----------------------|

Play 4 times. Note that the first part is played much slower than the other

part. The 3p0h3 section is actually all picked (I think), but with the speed

of pull-off/hammer-ons.

Oddfellows local 151 behind the firehouse

Where Peewee sits to prove a sage to teach

Peewee gathered up his proof

Reached up and scratched his head

Fell down and hit the ground again

Em C Em Am7

Firehouse. Firehouse.

(use intro/verse from above)

Why do the heathens rage behind the firehouse

Where Peewee sits upon the wall to preach?

This boy and girl that gather pearls

Of wisdom falling from his mouth

Wash off the blood, wash off the rum

Em C Em Am7

Firehouse. Firehouse.
