From: Mary Agnes Corbett 
Subject: Tab: Love Story by NOFX

Artist: NOFX
Song: Love Story
Album: Heavy Petting Zoo
Transcribed By: Jeremy Sells, Henry Fletcher, Jose Lourenco, Scott Meyer

We saw a transcription for Love Story on OLGA and it's wrong.
This version is right. 

Intro (palm muted bar chords)

Drums...

F - C - D
F - C - Bb
F - C - G - Bb - C (drum fill)

*First Verse

F      C           D
Partly owned tudor house

F      C            Bb
Wooden white picket fence

F      C         G      Bb            C
Mother waits for father in a backless dress

F      C          D
Hardly used a diaphragm

F        C         Bb
Put back into it's case

F         C         G      Bb           F
A one-way trip down memory lane and she awaits

Chorus
(strum and pick bar chords)

              C#
I don't wanna know

      F
Cheat Me

              C#
I don't wanna know

(drum fill)

*Chords are same as first verse,

Children play in the yard
Mother stares at a wall
Father says he's gonna be back late so don't wait up

'Bout a quarter to three
Father stares at a wall
Stained thicker than water, who's gonna clean it up?

*Chorus is the same, but the drum part changes to a fast roll after the 
second "I don't wanna know" and the song launches into a punk tempo.

*The words to the second verse are repeated as the third verse in punk 
tempo. 

(end chorus, still at punk beat)

              C#          F
I don't wanna know, cheat me

              C#          F
I don't wanna know, cheat me

              C#          F
I don't wanna know, cheat me

              C#          F
I don't wanna know, cheat me........
