VERSE 1: (No guitar this verse!!)

My friend's got a girlfriend
Man he hates that bitch
He tells me every day
He says "Man I really gotta lose my chick
In the worst kind of way"

VERSE 2:
F
She sits on her ass
Bb
He works his hands to the bone
F                       C
To give her money every payday
F                                 Bb
But she wants more dinero just to stay at home
F                   C       F
Well my friend, you gotta say

CHORUS:
F                            Bb
I won't pay, I won't pay ya, No Way-ay-ay-ay
F                C             F
Na na, why don't you get a job?
F                          Bb
Say no way, say no way-ah, no way-ay-ay-ay
F                C             F
Na na, why don't you get a job?

VERSE 3:
F                              Bb
I guess all his money, well it isn't enough
F                              C 
To keep her bill collectors at bay
F                              Bb
I guess all his money, well it isn't enough
F                     C              F
Cause that girl's got expensive taste

CHORUS

BREAK:
Bb
Well I guess it ain't easy
                 F
Doing nothing at alllllllll  ohhhh yeahhhh
Bb
But hey man free rides just don't
       G            C
Come along every day

(Let me tell you about my other friend now)

My friend's got a boyfriend

Well my friend, you gotta say

How to practise this song

  1. 1

    Practise the barre chord B

    B is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.

    Open
  2. 2

    Practise the change: B ↔ A

    Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

    Open

    Great first song

    Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
