Guitar tab on CaChink: chords · Easy · Standard (EADGBE) · key of C major. Playable in the browser — chords strum on tap and the tab plays back in the song's own tuning.
Fast and simple: five open-position chords — C, E, Am, G and F — cycled at a punk tempo (real recordings clock this one right around 197 bpm, so it goes by quick even though the changes are all beginner shapes). C–E–Am is a I–V/vi–vi move: that E is not diatonic to C major, it is borrowed to lean harder into Am before the song drops to G–F–G and resets. There is no chorus — the whole song is four verses built on small variations of the same handful of chords, which is unusual for a song this well-known. Some published versions use barre-chord shapes up at the E/G# position instead of these open shapes; this chart uses the easy open-position version so it is playable without a capo or a lot of barre work.
