Dare To Be Stupid Tab

Alrighty, this is a tab for Dare to be Stupid. This was just for fun.

Note: Most parts of the song are played using a keyboard. I just transcribed it to 
guitar. If you'd like to play it on guitar, be my guest.

enter band


|-------------------------|             |-------------------------|
|-------------------------|             |-------------------------|
|-9-9-7-7-----------------|             |-------------------------|
|---------10-7-9----------|x3 and then  |-12-11-9-12-11-9-11-12---|
|----------------7--------|             |-------------------------|
|-------------------------|             |-------------------------|

A variation of the enter band part:

|-------------------------|             |-------------------------|
|-------------------------|             |-------------------------|
|-9-9-9-9-x-x-x-x---------|             |-------------------------|
|-9-9-9-9-x-x-x-x---------|x3 then      |-12-11-9-12-11-9-11-12---|
|-7-7-7-7-x-x-x-x---------|             |-------------------------|
|-------------------------|             |-------------------------|

actually you might not need to mute, but that's just how I play it and its easier to play.

|-7-7---7-------7---9-9---9----9---13-13----13-----13----9-9---9----9---|

When he says "dare to be stupid, its so easy to do we're all waiting for you!" do this:

|-----10---8---10---------------------|
|---9----9---9----9-9-9-7-7-----------| x2
|---------------------------10-7-9----|
|----------------------------------7--|
|-------------------------------------|
and for the instrumental do the enter band part again


And when he says "you can be a coffee achiever..." 
do the verse again but when he says "What did I say?", do this:

|-7-----------------------------------|
|-----10---8---10---------------------|
|---9----9---9----9-9-9-7-7-----------| x11
|---------------------------10-7-9----|
|----------------------------------7--|

|-7---------------------------------------------|

|---9----9---9----9-9-9-9-7---9-----------------|
|-------------------9-9-9-7---9-----------------|
|-------------------7-7-7-5---7-----------------|
|-----------------------------------------------|

this song was kind of hard to tab. Enjoy, and make the further adjustments if ever 
thera are any mistakes.
