I think this already in the archive, but as I recall it was something of a
minimalist version. Here's what I've figured out for the main guitar
part. The second guitar throws in bits here and there. You're on your own
for those.

SWINGIN' PARTY

(Capo on 2nd fret)

The verses consist of two main parts

(Don't know how to denote this in terms of chords)

  Bring your own lampshade  somewhere there's a party

  C               Am             Cmaj7           Am

These two progressions are alternated in irregular fashion until you get
to "If bein' afraid is a crime...", where you play:


E                                              C    Am   Cmaj7  Am
If bein' afraid is a crime we'd hang side by side

        D7         Am      D7
At the swingin'    party   down the line

The little interlude in the middle of the song goes something like this:



E------------------------------|---------------------
B-----------0-h-1-p-0----------|---------------------
G----------------------2--0----|---------------------
D--0-s-2--2------------------0-|--1-s-2--2-----------
A------------------------------|------------2-0-2----
E------------------------------|-------------------0-


E--------------------------|---------------------------
B-----------0-h-1-p-0------|-----------0-h-1-p-0-------
G----------------------2-0-|----------------------2-0-- Back to main
D--0-s-2--2----------------|--0-s-2--2----------------- progression
A--------------------------|---------------------------
E--------------------------|---------------------------


There are other little subtleties, especially at the end, but this is the
basic song. Hope all you 'Mats fans out there like it.
