Shotgun In My Spaceship

	  		 

I wrote down all the lyrics and figured all the chords to my liking, but if I got anything wrong,  
just comment below.  Any words you'd need another person to sing are in ()'s.  I couldn't figure  
out the solo. 

Practice the lyric rhythm a lot, then sing this to your girl.  I believe in you. 

- peeeace, the Wheez 
--------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Tune all strings down a half step 

(?) = a D-shaped chord on fret 4 with pinky hammer(h)-on-pull(p)-offs 
(X) = a D-shaped chord only using the top two strings and sliding it up the neck 
(B7)= a weird bar.  You can use any B7 you want for the other B7's, but if you want  
      to do the hammer-on-pull-offs, you gotta use the one tabbed below. 
  * = There's a D-to-D7 chord transition thing actually happens as a triplet before  
      the first beat in the last measure.  The paino plays it. 
  _ = I tried to label where the down-beats are.
