Here's an ear-catching Sonic Youth song (off of Sister) that can be played
with normal tunage. The basic chord structure (and the intro) is:
[E5] [D#5] [A5]

[E5]Bur-[D#5]ning in[A5]side
(Riff)
I cross myself, it doesnt help
Because I am[E5] not[D#5] smart e[A5]nough
(Riff)
Digging into hot white
[E5]Learning [D#5]not to [A5]lie
(Riff played twice)
We cross it out and stay away
(after this part, the sonic noise steps in for awhile then it goes back to
the intro again)
[E5]Bur-[D#5]ning in[A5]side
(Riff)
We cross it out and stay away
The song gets sonically noisy again with the high E-string riff playing
repeatedy. And that is it!
