The original copy was close to the mark, but some
crucial parts were wrong/missing. I'm confident that my adjustments
make this tab 95%-100% right. If you think I missed something or

| Excellent driving tune. Here in Toronto, there is city workers on strike and I am sick of hearing about it....so I called the radio station EDGE 102.1 fm...and dedicated this song to all the strikers. WOOOOOOOO HOOOOOO I can tell you, they had a lot of angry callers after that. | |

| i think the band put it best when they said "a stomping song for the underdog".if anyone's really overly interested, go to the MUA(maritime workers union, i think)site to read up on all the late 90's wharfie strikes that this was written about....v.cool ps.drunken pirate?lol | |

| so does this make living end anti-union? because near the end they go all negative like "Five weeks had passed when the union made it clear Spirits slowly faded and the end was getting near You see you're all expendable And when all is said and done You'll go back to work tomorrow Or meet your new replacement son" that kinda sounds like the union used them makes living end sound like they have kind of conservative views what do other people think? | |
