Song: San Dimas High School Football Rules (Acoustic)
Band: The Ataris
Album: Let it Burn (Ataris/Useless ID Split)
Label: Kung Fu Records
Tabbed By: Donahue2
There's a guitar, a piano and a violin in this song, but I'm tabbing the piano
and violin out for guitar. It's not rocket science. There's alot of tabs for
this song and only one good one: This one. Yeah, I'm cocky. Wanna fight about it?
This song sucks and I'm only tabbing it to prove that I'm better than it.
Tuning: Standard (EADGBe)
INTRO/VERSE: (Guitar)

"Last night, I had a dream
That we went to Disney land
And went on all the rides - didn't have to wait in line.
I took you to your house where we stared up at the stars,
I listened to your heartbeat as I held you in my arms."

"We hung out at the rainbow where we drank 'til half past two,
Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with you.
Like trashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss,
Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist.
These are the things that make me free,
I feel like I'm stuck in 'Stand By Me',
This night was too good to be true."

"Today, I woke up alone, wishing you were here with me
I want us to be something that we'll probably never be.
Today you called me up, said you'd see me at our show,
But, now I'm stuck debating if I even wanna go."

"Denise, don't you understand that what I say is true?
I just want you to know I have a major crush on you.
I'd take you to Las Vegas and do things you'd wanna do,
I'd even have Wayne Newton dedicate a song to you.
I only wish that this could be
Just dump your boyfriend and go out with me,
I swear I'd treat you like a queen."

This is proceeded by some idiot pounding on a piano for a few seconds.
I wont be tabbing that up. I'd just like to say that this song is
quite possibly the worst bloody song I have ever heard. It was a
mistake on my part to tab up the piano and the violin. This has only
wasted my precious time. But, I did it, this tab is perfect.
For those of you without the time: Here are the chords and the lyrics.
