For the first guitar i would play the chord with my first finger on the second lowest string and then barring the next three strings two frets up without pressing down on high e. Just a lil tip, but u can play it however you would like. Also, as for the amount of distortion, the way my amp works is that i have 2 gains, the second giving more distortion than the highest setting on the first. So for the first guitar, i set the first gain about 1/3 of the way and leave it there for the whole song. For the second, i set gain 1 like 3/4 of the way. When the distortion is kciked up on the second guitar, i kickt up to the second gain with my footpedal and set that abpout 3/4 of the way.You can play around with what sounds right Good Luck!

THE HIVES LYRICS

"Hate To Say I Told You So"

Do what I want cause I can and if I don't
because I wanna be ignored by the stiff and the bored
because I'm gonna.
Spit and retrieve cause I give and receive
because I wanna gonna get through your head what the mystery man said
because I'm gonna.
Hate to say I told you so.
I do believe I told you so.
Now it's all out and you knew cause I wanted to.
Turn my back on the rot that's been planning the plot - because I'm gonna.
No need for me to wait - because I wanna.
No need two, three and too late - because I'm gonna.
Hate to say I told you so.
I do believe I told you so.
Do what I please gonna spread the disease
because I wanna gonna call all the shots for the "No"s and the "Not"s
because I wanna.
Ask me once I'll answer twice cause what I know I'll tell
because I wanna.
Sound device and lots of ice I'll spell my name out loud
because I wanna, oh yeah?
