During the bass solo & verses, 
alternate between E7 and Amaj, using
 palm
muting.  As the song progresses, 
Trey uses less and less muting, so 
use your
Continues after the ad
judgment. (for chords that you don't
 know, see the chord chart at the 
end)

Chorus

      G                       A
  But who can unlearn all the facts 
that I've learned
       G                          
  As I sat in their chairs and my 
E7
synapses burned
          G                    
  And the torture of chalk dust 
    A
collects on my tongue
  G                            
  Thoughts follow my vision and 
 A
dance in the sun
         G                         
  All my vasoconstrictors they come
 A
 slowly undone
             G
  Can't this wait till I'm old?
  (use main riff)
  Can't I live while I'm young?

  Can't I live while I'm young?

Guitar solo -

Solo in blues E for a while, and 
then here is the ending solo part
