Here, D*=Dsus2 and A*=Asus2. I've renamed them for space purposes.
And I think it's an E6... I could easily be wrong!


Intro:
-----
F  E     F  A?
F  A     D
B        D  C#
F#       A
D        G  F#

That first A chord I'm not sure of, but the rest is fine.


Verse:
-----
             E                     E6 E  D  D#
Well, it's a long way to Anchorage
But that's where I'll go with you
And we'll travel so far, dear
To escape that morning zoo


Chorus:
------
        A
Cause I hate MMR and I hate YSP
         E
I do not like the Greatful Dead
So, just don't talk to me
         D              A
I said I hate MMR and I hate YSP
        E
And you know that classic rock
Does not interest me


Instrumental:
------------
D Dsus D  Dsus D Dsus
A Asus A  Asus A Asus


verse:
People are getting angry
Maybe just they should
Cause some of us can still remember,
Back when XPN was good

chorus:
And I hate what they've done, to XPN
Bunch a' folk nazis ruined my favourite station
Said I hate what they've done, to XPN
If you hear it now, it's just a pale imitation

instrumental:

verse:
Well it's brunch with The Beatles
And a tribute to Billy Joel
Four hours of Doobie Brothers
And they call that radio

intro:

verse:
It's a long way to Anchorage
But that's where I'll go with you
And we'll travel so far, dear
To escape that morning zoo


Ending:
------
For this part, just play E and D as described until the main riff
at the end.

E
Cause I hate MMR, I can't stand YSP
         D
I do not like the Greatful Dead
             E
You'd better stay away from me
I said I loathe MMR, and I despise YSP
     D
Well friends there ain't no radio,
E
Here in our city

-OK, we've got a call on the request line and who am I speaking to?
-My name's Will Junior.
-And what do you do Will Junior?
-Well, I unclog the toilets at the head shop ???
-And what can I play for ya?
-Well, how about a block a' the Blahs dude?
-Sorry, just played a block of the Blahs for the guys at the sandal
 store
-Aw, man, well, how about a block a' Fleetwood Mack?
-Oh, just played a block of Fleetwood Mack for the guys at the granola
 factory.
-Oh man...
-But I'll tell ya what, How 'bout if I send you a $20,000 gift
 certificate from Bob and Jerry's world of wicker?
-Hey that's wicker! Dude, thanks a lot!

Play main riff again and end with an E.
