TAB OF:
«Genocide» by The Offspring
From the album «Smash»
Transcribed by Daniel Stephensen
I know that this album is getting pretty dated now, but
this is my favourite track off it, and a great driving
song.
Since nobody has sent a song tab of Genocideto any FTP
yet, I thought I’d lay down my version. Enjoy!
Intro:
G F C
E———————————————————
B———————————————————
G—————-5—————————————
D——5—-3—-5—————————————
A——5—-3—-3—————————————
E——3—-1———————————————
They’re the chords — I hate tabbing rhythm, but I
use sort of `d dudu u dd’, and finger mute in the fast
`dudu’ you’ll get a nice sound, which will be pretty
much what offspring have.
Riff 1:
E———————————————————
B—11-11-11-10-10-11-11-13-13-13-11-11-11-10-10—-10-10

This is just the upper range on a D Aeolian (major)
I forget how many times it is played (2, I think)…but
just listen to the CD and count `em… 🙂
Verse 1:
No guitar…but you could play the bass notes — G, F, C —
if you get too bored… 😛
(BTW: I haven’t got the words…in case you haven’t
noticed…)
At the end, there’s a bit of a solo on G, on the D string
— the 5th fret. It’s all distorted anyway, so the rhythm
doesn’t matter so much.
Chorus:
Dog Eat dog…(something like that… 😛 )
G bB F C
E———————————————————
B———————————————————
G—————10—-5———————————-
D——5—-8—-10—-5———————————-
A——5—-8—-8——3———————————-
E——3—-6———————————————
Rhythm? I double strum a bit because it feels good. 😉
Otherwise, I guess you could match the singer…but I
reckon anything would sound good, since the distortion is
probably up to 10 already…
Then, play that riff a few times (again, how many is
something beyond my knowledge…)
Verse 2:
Same story as 1 — it’s mostly bassy…
at the end, play the intro chords — G, F, C.
Bridge:
Our time is up…..
bE C

Okay: this is palm muted, with big-time distortion. I
reckon it’d be nice to chuck the reverb on a bit, too,
but I haven’t yet tried it. They are just powerchords
(same chords as the chorus). I don’t know
how many times to repeat (my big failing… 😛 ) but just
listen to the CD and count `em…
To end up:
Chorus
Riff 1
End on a G powerchord and let ring…

There ya go folks! Great song (nice riff) — Enjoy!
