Do You Want New Wave

@Song: Do You Want New Wave (or Do You Want the Truth)?

Written by Mike Watt

Recorded by Minutemen on album "Double Nickles on the Dime" (SST)

File format: tab, btab

Transcription: Gary Von Colln

The main chords in this song are Bm and D. The Bridge is Fm. The

guitar part uses fast right hand picking or slow strums so that the

individual notes from the chords sound. Use your thumb and index

finger or thumb and middle finger to pluck the two strings for the

turnaround riff.

I have also tabbed the bass part.

Bm - D - (2x)

A word war will set off the keg.

My words of war Should a word have two meanings?

What the fuck for? Should words serve the truth?

Bm - D - (3x)

Lead in: D - - - Bm - D -

I stand for language. I speak for truth.

I shout for history. I am the cesspool.

For all the shit to run down in.
