It helps to know hear and understand the feel, before
tryin' to play this.

First, a bit of bass tab... (verse) 

G-------------------------------
D-------------------2-----------
A-------------0--2-4-2--2-------
E-4-2-0--2--4------------4-2-0--

This is pretty much used throughout the song, 'cept
in the chorus.  If you can't figure out the chorus,
you can't play this song.  (By the way, the chords in
the chorus go E, E, D, A, E, E, G, D, E, E, D, A, and
the bass just follows the root of those chords.)

Now, the rockin' ska riff... (verse)

E---3-3-3-3-3-0--2-2-0----------
B---4-4-4-4-4-0--2-2-0----------
G---3-3-3-3-3-0--2-2-0----------
D-------------------------------
A-------------------------------
E-------------------------------

And the chorus, just power chords as stated above.  If
you can figure it out, just listen to the song, and all
will be revealed.

The Lyrics:
(verse)
I sit in my easy chair
I've got so much time to spare
cause I know in my future days
I'll have my lionshare
(verse)
theres nothing I like better
than getting something for nothing
some will tell you that you can't get nothing for free (there's nothing)
obviously they don't know me (obviously they've not met)
(chorus)
I live the lifestyle they speak of so highly
I live the life...the life of riley
(verse)
you can have your cake and eat it too
and there's plenty of free lunch for you (lots of
if you think you're getting cheated then you don't have a clue
you don't know where you are, or what to do (or just mumble)
(chorus)
I live the lifestyle they speak of so highly
I live the life...the life of riley
