  WHAT'S THE FREQUENCY, KENNETH?

  

  (Solo taken from _Guitar World_ January 1995)

  

  

  Intro:  | D  A | G | D  A | G |  (the "A" chord is just played once)

  

  

  A           D          Bm                G              A       D   A   G

  "What's the frequency, Kenneth?" is your Benzedrine, uh-huh

  A     D           Bm         G               A         D       Bm    E

  I was brain-dead, locked out, numb, not up to speed

  G                           A

  I thought I'd pegged you an idiot's dream

  G                      A

  Tunnel vision from the outsider's screen

  D       A          D      G         A      A    G    A

  I never understood the frequency, uh-huh

  D            A                    D       G        A    A    G    A    D

  You wore our expectations like an armored suit, uh-huh

  

  

  A                D         Bm            G           A         D  A *Fill1  G

  I'd studied your cartoons, radio, music, tv, movies, magazines

  A       D                    Bm                 G          A    D  Bm *Fill2  E

  Richard said, "Withdrawal in disgust is not the same as apathy"

  G                         A

  A smile like the cartoon, tooth for a tooth

  G                           A

  You said that irony was the shackles of youth

  D          A        D       G         A      A    G    A

  You wore a shirt of violent green, uh-huh

  D       A          D      G          A      A    G    A

  I never understood the frequency, uh-huh
