This song was played in the movie Reality Bites and it was the actor
Ethan Hawke who sang it. I really like this song. But in the movie
he just plays VERSE 1 and then the CHORUS/OUTRO. The first chorus,
which was not played in the movie, has totally different chords
than the CHORUS/OUTRO. Enjoy!

When you're playing the A chord, most of the time
you should play it like this:

    A         A*          A          A*   A
E|--------------------------------------------|
B|--2-2---2---3--3--3-2-3-2--2---2---3--3-2---|
G|--2-2---2---2--2--2-2-2-2--2---2---2--2-2---|
D|--2-2---2---4--4--4-2-4-2--2---2---4--4-2---|
A|--0-0---0---0--0--0-0-0-0--0---0---0--0-0---|
E|--------------------------------------------|

It's played like that in all the verses and the intro.
The only comfortable way to play this is to use your
index finger to play the A chord, then when you play the
A* you can just hammer on the D and B strings with your
middle and ring finger. Like Keith Richards does.

When you see something like 'D (sus2)' it just means
play the D chord but throw in the Dsus2 a bit. A lot
of times he plays A and then throws in a Asus2 for
instance.

OK, then you should be ready to play the song.


INTRO: play like tab above:
------
A

Got a pothead mama, got a cokehead dad


I'm an ultramodern version of the American man
   E            Esus4                           E
I don't feel good, but don't feel bad

       D         E          A
Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin'



VERSE 2: play like verse 1:
--------
Ain't no republicrat, no demmican, they ain't nuthin' in between

Cause me, you see, I'm nuthin'

  F#m                 E                  A (sus2)
Before I was born, oh that was all gone

Don't even make sense that I wrote this song, oh

 Never would cut it in no corporate job
Em                              G*                Dsus2
People see me coming, they say 'hey, look at that slob'

 A
That's me

 A
I'm nuthin
