So I'm a huge Voltaire fan and one of my favourite songs by him is "Bomb New Jersey" from is 2007 
album Ooky Spooky. I couldn't find the chords for this so I played around and discovered this 
really simple way to play the song. So here it is, I hope this works! :)
This is my first ever chords.
Capo 5
CThere's a magical Gland I know
A Cplace where I Ggrew up
And CI'd make a deal with the Gdevil himself
To Csee that place blown Dup
CThere in that interesting Gland I know
Where Cno one has a Gbrain
They Call wear jeans that are Gacid-washed
And yet Cthey think I'm Dinsane
*pause*
I would Gget down on my knees and service the Japanese
'Till I Creek of old sushi but please
Bomb New GJersey      
I would happily kowtow to my new leader, Chairman Mao
I would Ceven learn Chinese, just please
Bomb New GJersey
DBomb New GJersey
DBomb New GJersey
I would Ggo tell Jong Ill Kim that they're making fun of him
In a CKimchi-hating town that's known
As New GJersey
Better yet I've got a plan, I will convince Pakistan
That CIndia can be found somewhere
In New GJersey
New CJersey is a place where GI grew up
They Cpelted me with rocks and Ggarbage
I guess it’s Ctough to be a fruit in the GGarden State
And if you Chave a sexy girlfriend then they're Ddoubly irate
Oh I would Gclimb a rocky crag and plant a Russian flag
On a Csmoldering hole once known
As New GJersey
Oh it would be a tragic loss if both Bon Jovi and the Boss
Are Csomewhere out of state when the Danes
Nuke New GJersey
It's a Cplace named after a Gsweatshirt
So what Cmore can you exGpect, sir?
And if you Ctry to express you're indivGiduality
They will Cthrow you to the ground
And they'll Dkick you in the teeth
DLike they did to Dme
The Cbombs go down on GMorristown
And CTrenton's up in Gflames
CNewark we drowned then Gburned it down
But CElizabeth still smells the Dsame
Many Cbutts will breach on GMonmouth Beach
We'll Cerase Orange from Gsite
But Cbefore we leave this Gland I loathe
I Cbid New DJersey goodGnight

This is my first ever chords.

Capo 5

C G

There's a magical land I know

C G

A place where I grew up

C G

And I'd make a deal with the devil himself

C D

To see that place blown up

C G

There in that interesting land I know

C G

Where no one has a brain

C G

They all wear jeans that are acid-washed

C D

And yet they think I'm insane

*pause*

I would get down on my knees and service the Japanese

'Till I reek of old sushi but please

Bomb New Jersey

I would happily kowtow to my new leader, Chairman Mao

I would even learn Chinese, just please

Bomb New Jersey

D G

Bomb New Jersey

D G

Bomb New Jersey

I would go tell Jong Ill Kim that they're making fun of him

In a Kimchi-hating town that's known

As New Jersey

Better yet I've got a plan, I will convince Pakistan

That India can be found somewhere

In New Jersey

C G

New Jersey is a place where I grew up

C G

They pelted me with rocks and garbage

C G

I guess it’s tough to be a fruit in the Garden State

C D

And if you have a sexy girlfriend then they're doubly irate

Oh I would climb a rocky crag and plant a Russian flag

On a smoldering hole once known

As New Jersey

Oh it would be a tragic loss if both Bon Jovi and the Boss

Are somewhere out of state when the Danes

Nuke New Jersey

C G

It's a place named after a sweatshirt

C G

So what more can you expect, sir?

C G

And if you try to express you're individuality

They will throw you to the ground

And they'll kick you in the teeth

D D

Like they did to me

C G

The bombs go down on Morristown

C G

And Trenton's up in flames

C G

Newark we drowned then burned it down

C D

But Elizabeth still smells the same

C G

Many butts will breach on Monmouth Beach

C G

We'll erase Orange from site

C G

But before we leave this land I loathe

C D G

I bid New Jersey goodnight
