[Introduction]
Em  Em7  Em/C#  C7M (x2)
 
 
Em                    Em7
All the people on the village green
    Em/C#                C7M
Are gathered round their TV screens
Em                    Em7
To hear the government about speak
    Em/C#            C7M
For solider boys and Jesus freaks
 
Em                         Em7
They go on heaven on their holidays
    Em/C#        C7M
The congregation hopes and prays
Em                              Em7
They leave their letters in the mail box
    Em/C#             C7M
For lonely souls they could not save
 
[Interlude]
Em  Em7  Em/C#  C7M
 
Em                Em7
Off and on I used hear the call
    Em/C#           C7M
But she was just a baby doll
Em                           Em7
And all around them were the holy men
   Em/C#              C7M
Who twist the word of way back when
 
 
Em        Em7
She will kiss the sky
    Em/C#                      C7M
And shelter the world from the rail
 
 
Em                        Em7
Put another record on the jukebox
Em/C#               C7M
She might dance the night away
 
C/G          Em
On and on we go
        Em7
And the rest of the world outside
C/G             Dsus2
God may soon explode
                               Em
And there is no place we might hide
 
[Interlude]
Em  Em7  Em/C#  C7M (x4)
 
C/G          Em
On and on we go
        Em7
And the rest of the world outside
C/G             Em
God may soon explode
             Em7
And there is no place we might hide
 
C/G          Em
On and on we go
       Em7
And we kiss this world
      C/G         Dsus2   B11    Em
Goodbye and on and on and on and on
 
[Interlude]
Em  Em7  Em/C#  C7M
 
Em                    Em7
All the people on the village green
    Em/C#                C7M
Are gathered round their TV screens
Em                    Em7
To hear the government about speak
    Em/C#            C7M             Em

A few suggestions:1. The tab that you show for "Em/C#" is 042000. It's the right tab, but the wrong name. The chord used in the song IS 042000, but it's called Em6. Em/C# would be X42000.2. That low E bass note is needed in all four chords of the main riff. So I would replace the C7M (Cmaj7) with a Cmaj7/E, tabbed as 032000.3. Replace the C?s in the ?On and on we go? parts with Cmaj7/G (332000).4. Your D9?s (XX0230) are actually called Dsus2.5. Lyric-wise, God is not going to explode. The lyric goes: (Cmaj7/G)On and on we (Em)go, and the (Em7)rest of the world out-(Cmaj7/G)SIDE may soon ex-(Dsus2)plode . . .VERY nice job overall. Your tab helped me a lot! Thank you.

Capo 3, please

Em is 022000 not 002200
