listen to the song for rhythm , should be right . if the verse work sounds off , it’s
probably due to the lead guitar , took me a little while to work out exactly what the chords
were . pretty much just worked this out too over the last half hour , think it’s right .
hope it helps!
intro ( play twice )
G# C# x3
F# C#
G# C#
meet the son of a government man
G# C#
and a pillar of salt
G# C#
i was born with blood on my hands and
F# C#
have all signs of a bleeding heart
G# C#
living high in a giant hog
G# C#
and a mountain so steep
G# C#
keep your head in a hollow log as
F# C#
the ruling fog are abound to creep
D#m G#
what have we done?
C# G# F#
how’d we get so far from the sun?
D#m A#m
lost , lost in an oscillating phase
C# G# F#
where a tiny few catch all of the rays
G# C#
out beyond the western squalls
G# C#
in an alien land
G# C#
they work for nothing at all
F# C#
they don’t know the mall of the layaway plan
G# C#
dig yourself a beautiful grave
G# C#
everything you could want
G# C#
maybe those invisible slaves are
F# C#
too far away for the ghost to
D#m G#
haunt , what do we charge
C# G# F#
for letting go of a claim so large?
D#m A#m
oh , all of our working days are done
C# G# F#
but a tiny few are having all of the fun
C# G# F#
get used to the dust in your lungs
instrumental break ( play twice )
C# F# x 3
G#
D#m A#m
is there no way down
C# G#
from this peak to solid ground
D#m A#m
without having our gold teeth
G# F#
pulled from our mouth?
G# F# x 2
C# ( stop )
G# C#
make me a drink
G# C#
strong enough
G# C# F#
to wash away with dishwater world
C#
they said was lemonade
G# C#
walk with me
G# C#
after the show
G# C# F#
maybe we can find a way
C#
through the mine field in the
D#m G#
snow , what do we charge
C# G# F#
for letting go of a claim so large?
D#m A#m
oh , all of our working days are done
C# G# F#
but a tiny few are having all of the fun
C# G# F#
apologies to the sick and the young
C# G# F#
get used to the dust in your lungs
