Break Up Your Band

A classic 90s alt rock song featured on an episode of Beavis & Butthead.
--INTRO/LEAD PART--
(timing can be kind of tricky, I'm pretty sure its a triplet feel or something. Just "flicka da wrist",
you'll be fine. Also, I'm pretty sure the two guitars play a slightly different rhythm but I can't
really figure that out.)
12 = 12th fret
  v    ^  v ^   v    ^  v ^   v    ^  v ^   v    ^  v ^   v    ^ v

--BASS CHORD/VERSE--
during the intro, the bass plays part (1) once before the lyrics start and once again after
the first couplet.
(strum patterns, ^ and v, are a guide and probably not entirely accurate)
(1)
  v  v ^ ^ v ^  ^  v

Then this part
(2)
  v  v ^ ^ v ^ ^v ^v

Then the "crave rapid hands/with pride and finesse" bit
(3)
  v ^v^ v^ v ^ ^v ^v

(See end of tab for structure if you need it, I don't think you will)
--BRIDGE--
(1)
"and blast with the cold next to joy"
                                     "make it stop so you can"
                                             (these are 11th fret 8th notes and are played
                                              through the whole bridge under the chords)

I'm not going to tab the 11th fret 8th notes; whenever you are not playing
these chords, play the 11th fret thing if there is space.
(2)

back to the 11th fret thing
(3)

11th fret thing
(4)                                              "It has been approved"

--FINAL VERSE--
Back to the verse but instead of the lead part you play

The rest of the final verse is the same, except over this line:
"Stale sexless loud and vague/so stop while you can"
Hold the B power chord from verse part (3) and end on:

INTRO x6
VERSE (1)(1)(2)(3)
INTRO x2
VERSE (1)(2)(3)
BRIDGE (1)(2)(3)(4)
FINAL VERSE (1)(2)(3*)
