 Wall of Voodoo was in my opinion  one of the most interesting bands of the
 1980's.  The guitarist (Bruce Moreland, I think) now plays in acclaimed
 Pretty &
 Twisted, with Johnette Napolitano (of Concrete Blonde fame).  Stan Ridgway,
 singer/songwriter extraordinaire, is an accomplished solo artist and has a new
 band called Drywall.  Check out their new album, I forgot the name, but I hear
 it's reminiscent of Wall of Voodoo.
 
 This song is an A-side from  "Call of the West", on IRS records, released
 1980-something.  It is on the same album with their smash hit, "Mexican Radio".
 The guitar should be played with sharp, heavy distortion over a drum-machine
 sounding rhythm.  Listen to the song, the beat is quite simple.
 
 (I haven't played this in a while, so I don't remember the exact key, but the
 progression can be transposed to any key, I suppose).
 
 Strum eighth notes, medium tempo:
 
 B B B B B B B B | G G G G G G G G | A A A A A A A A | A A A A A A A A |
 
                B
 They don't want me
                 G
 They used to want me
                    A
 But they don't want me...Anymore
 
 I used to belong
 Now I don't belong
 It's not the same song...Anymore
 
 We used to play games
 We used to trade names
 But we don't play games...Anymore
 
 Cause' they don't want me
 They used to want me
 But they don't want me...Anymore
 
 Chorus:
 B                  G   A
 And now I'm all alone
 B                           G          A
 No one left to help chip the stone
 B                             G                    A
 And now this awful weed begins to grow
 'Cause they don't want me.
