Cretin Family chords by The Ramones

Chords with lyrics

Cretin Family, by the Ramones as found on the 1995 Ramones Album "Adios Amigos"


I have a lot of videos of the ramones playing and I can sort of see the frets
johnny is on but not well. I can sort of see the movement, I know this
is wrong and im probably making the song harder than it is but its still
just power chords so youll do fine. This is for all of you who don’t know
the chords by letters, only by their tabs, just like stupid lil me. Im only
twelve but im getting lessons soon and the ramones totally kick the crap
out of every other band on earth (not talentwise) but in being cool I
guess. This is a good song for beginners, and cj sings in it so have fun….

Ramones rule. This is my first tab and its all my own work. My e mail
