This is a cool, easy song that is also the theme to the "Freaks and Geeks"
TV show.  I saw it once and it was actually pretty funny.  It's probably
cancelled now.

All power chords, with distortion.  Gabba gabba hey.

Here's the music...

Intro:

--C#/D----------|---------------|-C#/D----------|---------------| x2

Verse:

--D(ring)-------|---------------|-C#/D----------|---------------|
  I don't give a damn...

--D(ring)-------|---------------|-C#/D----------|---------------|
  You're livin' in the past...

--G-------------|-A-------------|-G-------D-----|-A(ring)-------|
  You're gonna do what...

--D(ring)-------|---------------|-D-------G-----|-A--------D----|
  So why should I care...

--D-------G-----|-A--------D----|-D-------G-----|-A--------D----| **
  Oh no                           Not me

** This line is repeated 1x in first verse; 3x in final verse;
   and 2x in all other verses
