                          MODERN WORLD - Less Than Jake
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

By: Adam  adam@nevermind.co.uk

This is a cover of a song by The Jam, which sounds great. Its on the compilation
album 'The Pez Collection'. Some of the lyrics are slightly different to the
original, and Chris uses power chords and misses out the solo.

   To tell us what's right or wrong

The next verse is the same as the last two, but there's a bit of a lead playing
in the background, but I'll be buggered if I'm gonna try and tab that.

That's it.

Some of the rhythms are probably wrong, and I've missed out some palm muted
bits, but apart from that it should be OK.
