  • Intro
     
    F Gmin Bb C
  • F Gmin Bb C F
     
    F Bb F
  • He came bursting out of nowhere
    Bb F
    like a sphere into the sky
  • Bb F
    And he cast his light on everything
    Gmin Bb
  • it was like he never died
     
    Bb F
  • And he landed right on target
    Bb F
    But the target rolled away
  • Bb F
    And it left fim pointing nowhere
    Gmin Bb
  • You could here the children say
    Bb C F G#min
    He's the fellow, the man who invented himself
  • Bb C F F
    He's the fellow the man who invented himself
     
  •  
    And it continues in the same way for the next verse, and then,
    Bb F
  • Nobody knows where he's from
    Bb F
    Nobody knows where he's gone gone gone
  • F2 C
    But he's not here
     
  • The F2 chord looks like this (it's still an F chord, just an inversion)
    (X03311)
     
  • BRENDA'S IRON SLEDGE
    Intro:
    D:-----2-2-2-0---0-------0-0-0------
  • A:-0-3---------3-----2-3-------3-2-0
     
    A
  • We head downhill, my hands fly back
    Our fingers freeze, our hair falls out, our hair falls out
    Our fingers freeze, our hair falls out
  • The iron piston pumps and spouts
    D
    The steaming air as hot as sprouts
  • E A E
    All aboard, Brenda's iron sledge
     
  • No one's on top, they're comfortable
    They're sitting on a human chain, a human chain
    They're sitting on a human chain
  • Their limbs compressed in icy slush
    Of freezing in a raw meat groove
    All aboard, Brenda's iron sledge
  • D A E
    Please don't call me Reg, it's not my name
    The body's rear, a bucking sled
  • Which hits a tree and falls asleep, and falls asleep
    Which hits a tree and that is that
    The grasshoppers curl up and burst
  • And Brenda shovels on the wurst
    All aboard, Brenda's iron sledge
    Please don't call me Reg, it's not my name
  •  
    DO POLICEMEN SING?
     
  • The opening riff isn't really a chord,
    but tabbed out I guess it would look like:
     
  • Bass plays low E...
    Gtr. slides down from XXX9-11-X on beat 2,
    Then X12XXX, and pull off on the A string to X02XXX.
  •  
    The chord would be Em, and in both cases
    the two notes are E and Bb, so let's
  • just refer to them as Hi and Lo, shall we?
     
    Between couplets in the verse,
  • the Asus2 is just X02200, picked, with the
    bass going up to B on beat 4.
     
  • Hi Lo Hi Lo
    "O do policemen sing?" I heard a person cry...
     
  • Hi Lo Hi Lo Asus2
    "We can do anything!" I heard the force re- ply...
     
  • And so on until...the chorus:
     
    B: X24442
  • E: X79997 (bass plays A)
    D: X57775 (bass plays G)
    C#: X46664
  • C#maj7: X46564
    F#: 244322
    D#m: X68876
  •  
    Bsus2 E D
    It's true becauzza... Never argue with a rozzer...
  • D C# C#maj7
    Never show him insolence...
    F# D#m
  • Confidence...
     
    The next 5 measures are picked, but if they were chords
  • they'd be C#: 9-11-11-10-9-9, B: 799877, and B7: 797877.
    Some might choose to play these all as 7ths if they
    were playing them as chords.
  •  
    C# B
    'Cuz who supplies the evidence?
  •  
    C# B
    It's not your mother, or your lover,
  •  
    B7
    Or your best friend's dog...
  •  
    ...And back to Em and the Hi-Lo verse part.
     
  • The end section:
     
    --------------------
  • --------------------
    --------------------
    --------------------
  • ---2---1---2---1----
    0-----------------3- D (XX0232)
    ...Our law and or-der's never-never-never-never-never gonna break down
  •  
    Repeat 3 times, and on the last repeat (remember there's
    an extra "never"), end (on "Down") with a chord which
  • might be described as E5 (add Bb): 022300.
     
    As for the outro, it starts with the same E5 (addBb) chord,
  • then switches to XX4442, and up to XXX775, XXX997, XXX9-12-10,
    and XXX-9-11-9, as the song fades out.
     
  • THE LIZARD
    A Em D7 C G
    You wear the lizard's shoes and afterwards you get confused
  • You wear the lizard's coat and afterwards you fail to float
    You take the lizard's path but look who's lying in the bath
    You wear the lizard's skin no man can be a god and win at all
  • You take the lizard's mask but look who's lying in the cask
    And the clocks have stopped you'll find out what the lizard
    dropped
  • You know the lizard's won but you can't work out how it's done
    The lizard is your friend and will be to the very end of time
    You lie beneath the stars the lizard knows how high they are
  • The stars are out of reach the lizard lingers on a beach
    The stars are out of date the lizard had them on a plate
    You vomit in the shed the lizard got there first he's dead now
  •  
    MEAT
     
  • E is played as [listen for rhythm] a sort of switch between E and A.
    or as just a plain E, if you're into simplifying things.
     
  • E
    It don't feel much like a home without a dog
    It don't feel much like a pool without a frog
  • A E
    It don't feel much like a world without a girl
    A B
  • It don't feel much like a girl without a human being
    It don't feel much like a fish without a pond
    It don't feel much like a fence with no beyond
  • It don't feel much like a church without a god inside
    It don't feel much like a bank without a lot of money
    B E
  • Oh come on baby (doo-doo-doot) give me your meat
    It don't feel much like a foot without a shoe
    It don't feel much like a me without a you
  • It don't feel much like a train without a buffet car
    It don't feel much like a bed when there's nobody on it
     
  • Ah swallow it
    It don't feel much like a bath without a plug
    It don't feel much like a hole without a drug
  • It don't feel much like a drug without a side effect
    It don't feel much like an effect if you don't love nobody
    Come on baby gimme your meat

    ACID BIRD
    Intro:
  • D:-0--0-0-0----------------------------
    A:---0-0-0-0---------------------------
     
  • D
    Sucking on a tap that never dries
    A
  • Could you take it right between your eyes
    G D
    Bending blood, bending blood
  • A
    The father stood, the father's hood
    D A D A
  • Like shadow on an acid bird that etched her way across a field
    D E A
    So long ago
  •  
    Walking through the fields in summer heat
    Look at all the creatures 'round your feet
  • Pumping blood, pumping blood
    The mother's gaze, the mother gave
    White ointment of an acid kiss that burned upon the lips she
  • gave you
    So long ago, so long ago
     
  • G
    Fun in the sun, luck in the bloodstream
    A G
  • Shallow bodies writhing on the grass
    G
    Fun in the sun, hair in the slipstream
  • A G
    Tadpoles shooting through a hollow glass
     
  • Cutting out a silhouette in dreams
    Everything is older than it seems
    Son of blood, son of blood
  • The baby shakes, the baby snakes
    That crawl across the acid rings that flicker from your
    corpuscles
  • One sunny day, one sunny day
    Fun in the sun everyone knows it
    They could be as mellow as the hay
  • Fun in the sun everyone blows it
    They grow up and instantly turn grey
    Like shadow of an acid bird that etched its way across a field
  • So long ago, so long ago
     
    I WATCH THE CARS
  • * E:-0-0h3-0-3-5-3----------
     
    E *
  • I watch the cars go back and forth
    I watch the cars go back and forth
    I watch the cars go back and forth
  • A(5)
    Sometimes south and sometimes north
    E *
  • I watch the cars
    I hear them stopping down the street
    I hear them stopping down the street
  • I hear the sound of stocking feet
    A(5)
    I wonder who they're going to meet
  • E *
    I'm getting drunk inside my house
    I see the men inside their shells
  • I see the men inside their shells
    A(5)
    They go to prostitutes as well
  • Who never mind the way the smell
    E *
    The prostitutes are paid for it
  • Alright!
    I hear you're gonna try that too
    I hear you're gonna try that too
  • I hear you're gonna try that too
    A(5)
    I wouldn't pay to go to you
  • I'm getting drunk inside my house again
    I watch the cars go back and forth
    I watch the cars go back and forth
  • I watch the cars go back and forth
    A(5)
    Sometimes south and sometimes north
  • E *
    I watch the cars

    OUT OF THE PICTURE
    [I'm a bit unsure about the verse]
  • A D E
    Don't you ever wonder 'bout the nowhere girl
    Don't you feel sad or feel strange
  • D A E
    There is no escaping from the nowhere girl
    A D E
  • She's never really truly out of range
    D
    And I'm walking out of the picture
  • E A E D
    Leaving everything behind except my mind
    Don't you feel temptation for the nowhere girl
  • She can burn your hands and sting your heart
    She knows it's too late for you to save the world
    And you believe that there's still time to start
  • And I'm walking out of the picture
    Leaving everything behind except your mind
     
  • D
    She's not just a pretty face
    E
  • She's a big black hole as well
    A D
    She swallows everything she sees
  •  
    She's not of the human race
    She's a creature out of hell
  • She's's a disease
    You are just in time to see the nowhere girl
    Settling her fingers 'round your brain
  • Saw away the taps and you're a brand new world
    You'll never ever pass this way again
    Walking out of the picture
  • Leaving everything behind except your mind
     
    CITY OF SHAME
  •  
    E D
    It was in the city of shame
  • E D
    That I found I wasn't to blame
    A(5) B(7)
  • I was looking for a weird thing or two
    A(5) B(7)
    I discovered that it had to be you
  • It was in the city of fear
    That I shouted 'Is there nobody here?'
    Though the echo had the name on a ring
  • Still the echo wasn't called anything
     
    D A
  • La, la, la, la, la, la, la
    E A
    La, la, la, la, la, la, la
  • A E
    La, la, la, la, la, la, la
    A D
  • La, la, la, la, la, la, la
     
    It was in the city of love
  • All the flesh I ate was never enough
    Though I knew it wasn't good for my soul
    My body hungered for the ultimate goal
  • It was in the city of spies
    That I spoke with nothing but lies
    When they set a trap for all you could feel
  • It's important that your mind is concealed
    La, la, la, la, la, la, la
    It was in the city of shapes
  • That she made love to several apes
    She felt weird for a couple of days
    Pretty soon she got used to their ways
  • It was in the city of fools
    That she sold her beautiful jewels
    Someone bought them and sold them again
  • Now they've been bought by several men
    E A
    La, la, la, la, la, la, la
  • E D
    La, la, la, la
    [repeat as needed]
  •  
    LOVE
     
  • D G
    The sun is shining on the ground
    C D
  • I see that nothing makes a sound
    D C
    I move invisible as air
  • G D
    And choose the time to disappear
    D C D
  • Ah, ah, ah - I'm in love with you
     
    The spirit started long ago
  • They've found somewhere they couldn't go
    They spend their time just looking out
    For those who never share a doubt
  • Ah, ah, ah, ah - they're in love with you
    The seagull on the seeping sand
    Can die but never understand
  • The oil that festers on our shore
    Will cast a stain for evermore
    Ah, ah, ah, ah - who's in love with that?
  • The gnomes are moving through the night
    The sing and fiddle with delight
    And we eat Weetabix and sing
  • About the joys that love can bring
    Ah, ah, ah, ah - if they ever come
    The sun is shining very hard
  • It melts both margarine and lard
    But me I only dream of you
    I hope that you are dreaming too
  • Ah, ah, ah, ah - I'm in love with you
     
     
  • Dancing On God's Thumb (3:40)
     
    Intro: [Soft Boys version]
  • e:-0----0-1-2-3----0-1-2-7-5-??-3-0-
    [the ?? is either a 5 or a 3. Kimberly plays it very fast and
    very distorted, so I can't properly tell. If you can, let me
  • know]
     
    B(7) A(5)
  • I don't mind walking through the wind and the rain
    I don't mind waiting where they cancel the train
    But when I don't have love I stand and complain
  • E D
    I hate everything that I see
     
  • I don't mind waiting 'til the end of the world
    'Cause in the Universe a womb I am curled
    But Armageddon when the flag is unfurled
  • You know the first to fall out will be me
     
    B(7) A(5) G(3) B(7)
  • We are all dancing on God's thumb
    We are all dancing on God's thumb
     
  • I don't mind eating off the side of the plate
    I don't mind jumping off the top of the gate
    There's a solution if you're willing to wait and
  • Believe that it's worth waiting for
     
    'Cause if you try to look for nobody else
  • You find it gets too much to live for yourself
    You'll still be empty though you're crawling with wealth
    And you're too fat to squeeze through the door
  •  
    We are all dancing on God's thumb
    We are all dancing on God's thumb
  •  
    We are all dancing on God's thumb
     
  • There's no use preaching like you're gonna be saved
    You cannot argue with a cross and a grave
    It's just a question of the way you behave
  • If you wanna survive on your feet
     
    We got a bunch of crippled looners in power
  • Who wanna treat us to a nuclear shower
    I'd give my life for just a gun and an hour
    You know I'd murder them out in the street
  • We are all dancing on God's thumb. It's humming disco
