By Tom McRae
 
Chords:
(T=10th fret)
 
D- T90xxx
A- 540xxx
G- 320003
 
Now it's essentially just these 3 chords over and over again... normally adopting this
strum pattern... all quick downstrums by the way and notice the hammering on to create
a sus4 effect... very important that you nail it

Occasionally Tom changes the strumming, plays more notes of the chords 'n' stuff but
listen to the record for that banter...
 
D                 A                     G                     D
Light me a smoke, I'll tell you a story of how the West was won
 
                    A                   G                      D
Flew over diamonds, east river shining, a city sinking in the mud
 
                 A                   G                    D
And in a second, a life-long second, I knew what we'd become
 
                           A                          G                             D
We use up people, use up time, use up places say goodbye searching for the crowded hour
 
                              A                                  G                D
Now there's a buzzing in the wires, look for lightening in your eyes and I see it there
 
 
...and it's just that. For 6 minutes. Any banter (although please none of the historical
civilizations sort...) to ihateibiza@hotmail.com
