Hello!

I'm the one who posted the lyrics to this. After some fiddling around, I
got most of it down (not very accurate, but at least will give you a start)

Please don't criticize this (but I do love corrections!), I'm a 15-year-old
guitarist in a local band, and don't claim to know all of the music theory
stuff, I just play it like it sounds.

                  ---= Mykel & Carli by WEEZER =---

Intro:
      NOTE: Intro not played with power chords, but open chords!
G, C, D, (Funky chords*)

* The funky chords are:

      (D)       (G)
  e --2-2--2--2--3--------------------------------------------
  B --3-3--3--3--3--------------------------------------------
  G --2-2--0--2--0--------------------------------------------
  D ----------------------------------------------------------
  A ----------------------------------------------------------
  E ----------------------------------------------------------

  NOTES: The 2-3-0 is a D chord with a finger pulled off
         The 3-3-0 is the bottom of the G chord. I can't really switch
          as fast when putting on the whole G chord, but it still
          sounds ok like I have it transcribed.


G5             C5    D5                 G5
Back in Wilson High, I had two best friends
They lived down the block
Where the road stop is
G5                  E5          F#5             G5
What'cha get for my bones, they fed my icecream cones
What'cha get for my happiness, wouldn't leave me alone

There is an interlude guitar riff after these versus:

Back in Wilson High, said I had two best friends
Until the schoolbus came
And took away my friends
Now I'm left alone at home, to sit and think all day


They gave me a hat, the hat was awful rad
Wore it every day, made my teacher mad
She tore it off my head, now my head's well, red
It gets golden-nice sometimes, but I can't be mislead



D5       C5    A5 G5
Here you lead, Mykel
Here you lead, Carli
Here you lead, Mykel
Here you lead, Carli
 -last verse:
oh oh no, Mykel
oh oh no, Carli
