hey so this guitar bits weird! I'm sure you could play it a few ways but here's a version based off of how
Nels Cline plays it

Watching live videos of the minutemen D.Boon keeps his left hand pretty much in the same place so he might be
using different strings.
But yeah, keys weird, syncopations weird and they change it a lil every time! Leave any comments if you've
got any suggestions.
