This song was originally written by Steve Jones and Paul Cook of the Sex Pistols for their
Rock n' Roll Swindle soundtrack and later gifted to the Runaways when they were hanging with
Steve and Paul in the late 70s. The Pistols later released the song with Steve singing and it was also
covered by Guns n' Roses in the 90s. Both these bands play the riff with power chords including the E-string.
