CHERRY BOMB
by ASH from the album FREE ALL ANGELS

INTRO:

There's a lot of feeding back and string scraping and stuff.
The bass plays the verse bassline twice, then the guitar starts playing the
verse riff.

   C5       D5                G5
E|------------------------------|
B|------------------------------|
G|-5--------7-------------------| The rythmn's easy to pick up, just
D|-5--------7-----------------5-| listen.
A|-3--------5-----------------5-|
E|----------------------------3-|  (x2)

VERSE 1:

C5         D5               G5
 Teenage queen, a sweet gamine
  C5       D5          G5
Immortal youth a libertine
C5       D5                G5
Is she real, or just a dream
   C5          D5             G5
My heart beats fast like benzadrine.

PRE-CHORUS:

B|-1----------------------------------1---------------1------|
G|-2----------------------------------0---------------2------|
D|-3----------------------------------2---------------2------|
A|-3----------------------------------3---------------0------|

B|-1--------1----3----|

D|-3--------3----0----|
A|-3--------3----2----|

  Makes me wanna die

VERSE 2:
(C5-D5-G5 progression again)
She is out there on her own
Perfection in her chromosome
She walks by, I need to know
Blood red lips, soft as snow.

(C5-D5-G5 progression again)
When she walks across the floor
Electric shock and my heart is raw
Is she real, or just a dream
My heart beats fast like benzadrine.
