"Bitch School" by SPINAL TAP
This is the first single from the Spinal Tap album "Break Like The Wind".
The opening riff is just based on the open A and D chords:
A D5
---------------| -2--2---2-3----| -2--2---2-2----| -2--2---2-0----| -0--0---0------| ---------------|
This is repeated till the line "You won't behave the way a big girl should"
when this chord sequence occurs.
E F#m G
For the chorus it is just a permutation of the opening riff with a slightly
different timing for the first two chords.
For the bridge with lyrics "No more sniffing strangers..."

-5-5--3---!-7-7--5----!-9-9--7---! -3-3--1-3-!-5-5--3-5--!-7-7--5-7-! --------1-1--------3--!--------5-!
The not terribly devastating solo goes like this:

-----2-4b(6)--4b(6)-4b(6)r(4)-2--7\-!
--2h4-------------------------------!

--14h16---------------------------------------!
----------------------------------------------!
----------------------------------------------!
Note: b - is for bend
The brackets are for the note to bend to.
r - is for return from bend
\ - means slide down.
Also at the end during the 'G-chord' & lyrics "You will come a little faster
,thanks too ..", this is just a bar in 5/4. The next bar for the chorus is
back to 4/4.
And remember, "Tap into TAP"
