  • Starts out on a synth, but using two guitars:
     
    Guitar 1:
  •  
    Finger
    e x
  • B x
    G 10
    D 10
  • A 8
    E x
     
  • Pick quickly A-A-D-D-G-G-D-D-A-A-D-D-G-G-D-D (all sixteenth notes) over and
    over
    (Technically, this is until the end of the song, when the violin comes in.)
  •  
    Guitar 2:
     
  • Finger:
    e 13
    B 13
  • G 10
    D x
    A x
  • E x
     
    Pick quickly G-G-B-B-e (The G and B strings are played as sixteenth, the e
  • is picked as an eighth)
     
    After 5 repetitions, the piano enters, after four piano and synth parts,
  • the drums and bass enter. The piano and bass play a simple
    F-C-Bb progression
     
  • For guitar in place of piano, it is played
     
    F C Bb
  • e 5 3 1
    B 6 5 3
    G 5 5 3
  • D x x x
    A x x x
    E x x x
  •  
    The first verse is played the same way:
     
  • F C Bb
    Out here in the fields
    I fight for my meals
  • I get my back into my living
    I don't need to fight
    To prove I'm right
  • I don't need to be forgiven
    (yeah yeah yeah yeah ye-ah!)
    NOW Townshend throws in the power chords along the same rhythm (F-C-Bb)
  • Play that pattern 5 times, then it softens for the bridge:
    Play C5 three times, then softly strum a first-position C chord
    (With the opening F5 synth pattern only:)
  • Don't cry
    Don't raise your eyes
    It's only a teenage wasteland
  •  
    The chords ring in again, with bass and drums, the synth still rolling
    Sally take my hand
  • We'll travel south cross land
    Put out the fire but don't look past my shoulder
    The exodus is here
  • The happy won't come near
    Let's get together before we get much older
     
  • A soft guitar solo, in the same key, but one I can't figure out yet.
     
    Hitting a few F5 chords, the drums and bass ring back in and the bar chords
  • return in the F-C-Bb pattern:
    Teenage wasteland!
    Teenage wasteland!
  • Teenage wasteland, oh yeah!
    Teenage wasteland!
    They're all wasted!
  •  
    F-F-C-C-Bb-Bb-C-C
     
  • Tab:
    F chord:
    e: -12-13-15--12-13-15-1213-15
  • Repeat, over a C then Bb chord, then, over C
    e: -15-13-15-13-15-12--15-13-15-12-13-15-12-----15
     
  • The violin comes in over the synth part, which fades out as the violin
    plays until the end, when the synth returns for a crescendo up onto yet
    again the F5 chord.
  •  
    A classic, a masterpiece--only Pete Townshend (although any group doing
    this without Keith Moon on drums loses something!)
  •  
    Kevin Cherry
     
  • "Fletch, this time you goofed big. . .in the story of yours we ran
    Wednesday, you have recent quotes from a man who's been dead two
    years. . . ."
  • "At least give me a chance to check my sources."
    "Like who? Saint Peter? You get him on the line, I want to know."
