I have seen tabs for this song tuned down a half step, but 
nobody wants to take time to do that, so here is the song 
in standard tuning. It is not perfect but hopefully it will 
give you a start in learning how to play this wonderful 
Weezer song 
 
Enjoy!

Don't bother to pack your bags or your map,

*this chord will have to be played this way: 
e----------

d--8------ 
a--6------- 
E--------- 
this is the only difference in sound from the half-step  
down version. I just moved it up an octave from where it 
is when weezer actually plays it.
