Basic song:
1st part 2nd part 3rd part
F#, E, B F#, E, B, B F#, C#, E, B
alternate
F#, C#, B, F#
in full :
F# E
We are the 8 0 1
B F#
We are the central shaft - And we are
E B
here to let you take advantage
F# E
Of our lack of craft
B F#
Certain streets have certain corners
E B
Sooner or later, we'll turn yours
F# E
We are the 8 0 1
B F#
We are the central shaft - And thus through-
E B
-out two years we've crossed the ocean
F# E
in our little craft (Row! Row! Row!)
B F#
Now we're on the telephone
E B
Making final arrangements (Ding! Ding!)
F# E
We are the 8 0 1
B F#
We are the central shaft
E B B
F# E
Looking for a certain ratio
B B
Someone must have left it underneath the carpet
F# E
Looking up and down the radio
B B
Oh-oh, nothing there this time
F# E
Looking for a certain ratio
B B
Someone said they saw it parking in a car-lot
F# E
Looking up and down the radio
B B
Oh-oh, nothing there this time
F# E
Going back down to the radio
B B
Oh, oh - oh, oh - oh, oh - here we go!
======= ======= =======
=== B, B bent to C/C#, A, B -- like: ===
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
E |-----------------------|-----------------------|
B |-----------------------|-----------------------|
G |-----------------------|-----------------------|
D |--9-9b10------7-----9--|--9-9b10------7-----9--|
A |-----------------------|-----------------------|
E |-----------------------|-----------------------|
Either keep that up for the last part, or switch to chords.
I like F#, C#, E, B when alone, or F#, C#, B, F# if there is a bass.
======= ======= =======
F#
We are the table, the captain's table
C#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
E
We are the losers, we are the bruisers
B
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
F#
We are the diners, the final diners
C#
Let's get it understood, let's get it understood
E
Most of us tinkers, some of us tailors,
B
And we've got candlesticks, and lots of cocktail sticks
F#
We saw the lovers, the modern lovers
C#
And they looked very good, they looked as if they could
E
We are the neighbours, the nosy neighbours
B
We think just like we would, we think just like we should.
==== (continue 3rd part) ====
Oh, oh oh oh oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
