"Interstate"
by:THE REFRESHMENTS
from:Fizzy Fuzzy Big & Buzzy
tabbed by:J-Punk

NOTES:
4/4 with a triplet-type shuffle. I'm not trying to act like a music genius or anything,
but this is a mid-fast tempo song that feels kinda half-time 'cuz  the chords are held for
2 bars in the intro/verses. Don't take this tab to heart! These (as with all songs I tab out)
are my best guesses. Anyways, a good Refreshments song.

RIFFS:
riff 1           x3
e:--3-2-----|-0----|---------|-------------|
B:------3---|---3-*|-3/5-3---|-3/5-3-0-----|play riff 1 & rythym 1 (both x2)
-->Play riff 2 & rythym 2 (both x1) over:
     Well the fact of the matter
     There aren't no back seat found
     Take it further
     It doesn't matter
     Well out here on the border
     Ants drag bones across the hot dry ground
     Told me there at the trailer park
     They got a million souls at the lost and found
-->Play riff 1 & rythym 1 (both x1)
-->Play riff 2 & rythym 2 (both x1) over:
     Well you should have known better
     Dead thoughts and lost horizons
     And to take it further
     It don't get any better
     Well out here on the border
     Ain't nobody asking questions
     No I don't need a miracle
     But I could use a push in the right direction
-->Play rythym 3 (x1) over:
     Handgun and a bottle of booze
     and a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
     Left from Boise Idaho 95
     So when they crossed the state line
     They were just in time to fall
     Asleep at the wheel
-->Solo for 16 bars over rythym 2 (x1)
-->Play riff 1 & rythym 1 (both x1)
-->Play riff 2 & rythym 2 (x1) over:
     Last back doesn't matter
     Never was no back seat found
     And to take it further
     It never really matters
     Well out here on the border
     Ants drag bones across the hot dry ground
     Told me there at the trailer park
     They got a million souls at the lost and found
-->Play rythym 3 (x2) over:
     Handgun and a bottle of booze
     And a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
     Left from Boise Idaho 95
     So I was just in time to miss
     The 5:00 o'clock news
     Velvet black Interstate is something that appeals to me
     5:99 and a stone cold feelin'
     I had a bottle of wine
     I was feelin' just fine
     And when I crossed the state line
     I was just in time
     To fall asleep at the wheel
-->Solo for 16 bars over rythym 2 (x1)
-->Solo over rythym 3 (x4) and:
     Handgun and a bottle of booze
     And a "69" Ford and a new pair of shoes
     Left from Boise Idaho 95
     So I was just in time to miss
     The 5:00 o'clock news
     Velvet black Interstate is something that appeals to me
     5:99 and a stone cold feelin'
     I had a bottle of wine
