Guitar chords with lyrics

"Roots Radical"  -  Rancid

I don't have time (or know) the lyrics of this song for posting, but the guitar part won't
be hard to figure out if you play it with the CD.

Verses:
(1'st verse is sharp and each chord is heard.  The rest are played all down-stroke, punk
style.)

C C     F F   G  F  C C
Took the 6'th street bus... (?)
(The rest of the verses are also all C  F G  F C)
Lead in to Chorus:
G------  F------  D--------
(No idea of the lyrics)

Chorus:
C                          F             G
Give 'em the boot, the roots, the radicals...
C		     F	        G
Give 'em the boot, you know I'm a radical
C                          F             G
Give 'em the boot, (?)
C	   G-G-G-G
...My stereo.

Bridge:
During the "yeah, yeah" part, it is an F barre chord (2'nd family) played at the 8'th fret.
The little riff can be improvised out of a blues scale also at the 8'th fret.  At the end of the
bridge (the word "yeah" is screamed), the chord switches to a G chord (2'nd family)
played at the 10'th fret.

Outro is the same as the chorus.
