Tabbed from the 16 Unrecorded & Unreleased bootleg (Club Sappho, May 26
1985), there are also bigger (arranged) versions on Being Sensitive,
Melissa Madness & Practice Tapes.
4/4 time, 138 beats per minute.
This is pretty much E E D A throughout (except the bridge). There's one
strumming pattern for the intro, another for the verse and a third for
the chorus.....

They ask why do we live love die, do we
h is a hammer-on
p is a pull off
m is mute the strings immediately after you have strummed them to give a
percussive sound
x is mute the strings at the neck *as* you strum them
n.c. is no chord
