[Verse 1]
          C
It was 1983, when Eric
       G/B
Melvin called
He heard that I played
F/A
bass in False Alarm
Fm/G#
He asked me if I wanted
           Em/G
to start a punk band
             Em/G
I said “F**k Yeah”
And we saw Code
   G
of Honor
And since then we’ve
     C
been brothers
C           G/B
I met Smelly in East
Hollywood
F/A
He didn’t know me,
Fm/G#
 but he
liked my Black
     Em/G
Flag skateboard
I liked his two
piece
Em/G
Tama Drama drum
set
G
That was a night I
          G
 won’t forget, the
night
             C
we became NOFX

[Bridge 1]
Dm
To survive we bought
    F
and sold and
            C
did so many drugs
                 Am
And made so many bad
                 F
decisions and recordings
         Fm
We never had a chance
until we got



[Verse 2]
  C
A Mexican American,
G/B
 a stolen phone
     F/A
card, a van to tour
the country
Fm/G#
Playing backyards
Em/G
, maybe even
         Em/G
we’d get paid
       G
But we knew in our
hearts from that
       G
 first day

We would always
       C
 do it our way



[Briege 2]
C
Everyone would
shoot
   G/B
us down,
shoot us up, said
 our
F/A
sound was much too
       F/G#
like RKL
We could never s
Em/G
ell out a garage or
  Em/G
a basement
      G
Self abasement the
only
         G
thing we had
that didn’t really
C
suck
Dm
To show our
         F
gratitude, this
 song’s for all of you
C
Call it (No idea, Mike
Am
 mumbles this line)
Friendship comes with
F
all your trust
        Fm
And for all the
older punk bands


[Verse 3]
C
Who proved punk will
      G/B
never die
              F/A
And showed us how we
           F/G#
could be DIY
        Em/G
There’s not enough
 words to show
     Em/G
our appreciation
      G
If it wasn’t for
you
   G
we couldn’t
             C
have done it our way



[Outro]
      C      G/B
Since 1983, ‘till
this final show
F/A
We want you all to
know
     F/G#
that we mean what
we say
          Em/G
So stop assuming
there’s
             G
gonna be a reunion
            C
This is the last
time
   G/B
NOFX will
     Am     Am
ever play
G          F
Don’t feel bad,
just
have the best
G
time you’ve ever
 had
         E/G#
So let’s give three
 cheers and
 one hip hip
   Am
hooray (hip hip
    G
 hooray)
      F
If it wasn’t
for all
of you, we
G
couldn’t have
        C
done it our way.
