Here is a better interpretation of I Wanna Be Sedated by the Ramones than either of the ones that are currently posted on the mirrors site. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I W a n n a B e S e d a t e d
Artist: Ramones
Intro: E (2 measures) - slide into it from a D#
Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go I wanna be sedated
Nothin' to do and no where to go-o I wanna be sedated
Just get me to the airport put me on a plane
Hurry hurry hurry before I go insane
I can't control my fingers I can't control my brain
Oh no no no no no
Lead guitar picks 8th notes on the open high E string over E A B E chords (1 measure each)
E (2 measures) - slide into it from a D#. Then it goes up a *full* step to:
Twenty-twenty-twenty four hours to go I wanna be sedated
Nothin' to do and no where to go-o I wanna be sedated
Just put me in a wheelchair get me to the show
Hurry hurry hurry before I gotta go
I can't control my fingers I can't control my toes
Oh no no no no no
F# (2 measures)
Repeat last verse, then:
Ba-ba-bamp-ba Ba-ba-ba-bamp-ba I wanna be sedated
Ba-ba-bamp-ba Ba-ba-ba-bamp-ba I wanna be sedated
repeat and let F# ring to end

Over the E E E E A A A A B B B B E E E E part.
then it goes up a *full* step so that the chords are:
hopefully, that's enough explanation of this one.
Distort heavily, and make up your own lyrics as needed.
