Song: 1985 (acoustic)
Artist: Bowling for Soup
Album: A Hangover You Don't Deserve\Rolling Stone Original: Bowling for Soup
Tabbed by: Jake (Hawk987)

Note: The acoustic version of this song does not include the solo.
If you don't know the rythm, go to 
http://musicstore.real.com/music_store/search?affil=musicguide&value=bowling%20for%20soup&type=art
Last I checked, they still had links to the acoustic videos from there

Note2: If you are playing this on an accoustic guitar, in the verse play 
e|---x---|
B|---x---|
G|---x---|
D|---x---|
A|---x---|
E|---x---|
instead of:
e|-------|
B|-------|
G|-------|
D|---x---|
A|---x---|
E|---x---|

On some electric guitars, even on a clean setting, it tends to give a strange feedback.

Aside from the intro, use alternating up and down strokes

\or/ -slide
x (below) - pm (I don't think there is any pm'ing in this song)
x (within) - dead string (lay your finger over the fret, but dont     
                          press down)

				I dont remember whether 
				or not this last chord is here
                               EDIT: ok, this chord is NOT here in
                                     the acoustic version

(repeat both phrases in order again)
(there is a second guitar on the intro, 
but its just the same chords and same order 
as the verse and pre-chorus, so u can figure it out)

Finally done. I tried to get the partial lyrics as close as i could. 
Remember, this is for the Acoustic version from the Rolling Stone Original, 
not the album version. 
Due to the size restrictions of the tab form, the second part of the chorus was
slightly altered. The tabs are still right, just the spacing is a bit awkward.

If you have any suggestions, corrections, insults, 
random comments, or you need an MP3 of this song, e-mail me at
btfenwndm@yahoo.com

and after tabbing out my first song, I suddenly have a lot more respect for 
people who can just sit down and tab an entire song start to finish.

If you want to submit this tab anywhere else, or distribute this tab in any way, feel
free too as long as you leave my name(s) and e-mail address on it.
