Only a few chords, but there's a couple of little fill bits that
I'll have a shot at.


Verse:

It's basically the chords as shown below and a couple of fills. The
way I tried it is something like the following. For the strumming on
the chords, listen to the recording, or make up your own pattern...
Stewart would.

    A                        D
E---5----------5---8-7-5--|--5----------5---8-7-5--
B---5----------5----------|--7----------7----------
G---6---etc.---6----------|--7---etc.---7----------
D---7----------7----------|--7----------7----------
A---7----------7----------|--5----------5----------
E---5----------5----------|------------------------


Repeat each of these the necessary number of times. The other part
of the verse is just chords, but goes something like...

    E         D         A         lowE
E---7---------5---------5---------0-0-------
B---9---------7---------5---------0-0-------
G---9---...---7---...---6--...----1-1-...---
D---9---------7---------7---------2-2-------
A---7---------5---------7---------2-2-------
E-----------------------5---------0-0-------

A
I've got some buddies and we all drink bleach
A
You know we practice what we preach
            D
We're not a drunken bunch of frat-boys
Trashed on beers
     A
Or a stoned bunch of hippies
With no careers
  E                         D              A    E(low)
I wanna drink bleach with a Georgia peach


Verse:
My pals and I all drink Clorox
Or eat Snowy Bleach right out of the box
Teenage suicide rate's shot high
And we understand the reasons why
Bleach does more than whitens socks

Chorus:
C                                 G
Don't you wanna hang out with the Bleach Boys, baby?
     D                     F
In a world where ministers murder golf pros
G                          A
Don't you wanna drink some bleach tonight?

Verse:
Maybe there'll be a party at the beach
We'll bitch about life and chugalug bleach
No one's getting high, and no one's getting drunk
I've got a case of bleach stashed in my trunk
I wanna die with Clorox within reach

Verse:
I'm very proud of the respect I've earned
And my voice is very deep cause my throat got burned
Bleach keeps you young so I've been told
Cause no one who drinks it lives to get old
Drink it with a chaser was the first thing that I learned

Chorus:
Don't you wanna hang out with the Bleach Boys baby?
In a world where midgets run for mayor
Don't you wanna drink some bleach tonight?

Verse:
I had 26 friends in the beginning
But now it seems our numbers are thinning
Some people drive fast, others love to bet
Still others snort coke in a private jet
But drinking bleach is my way of winning

Solo with verse chords:

Chorus:
Don't you wanna hang out with the Bleach Boys baby?
In a world where welders own our schools
Don't you wanna drink some bleach tonight?

Verse chords:

End on A.
