Hope someone out there digs this tune as much as I do. But anyway, most of this transcription was from the Guitar World's 1/95 exploitation of punk issue. If anyone wants anymore songs from it just leave a message. Also, if someone could send me the lyrics, I'd really appreciate it. Send questions, comments, wit, corrections, flames, to me, amit, at: mathuran@ttown.apci.com P.S. Anyone have the chords to EMI or Submission, or Been Caught Stealin' by Jane's Addiction, please send them to me or post.
