G
Turning on the TV and what do I see?
                                                        F#
A pageantry of empty gestures all lined up for me – wow!
G
I’d have thought by now we would be ready to proceed
 
But a tearful hymn to tug the heart
                            F#
And a man-sized wreath – ow!
 
 
Am
Throw it on the fire
D
Throw it in the air
Bm                                      E
Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh
Am   G     D
Give me some
 
 
G
Wave the palms, still the arms, fists in the air
                                                                    F#
A motorcade of a night-string(?) shows the people that you care – ow!
G
Nature abhors a vacuum but what’s between your ears?
 
Your judgement cluttered with fearful thoughts
                             F#
A headlights and a deer – ow!
 
 
Am
Throw it on the fire
D
Throw it in the air
Bm                                      E
Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh
Am   G     D
Give me some
 
Riff1
 
 
G
Well I’m not deceived by pomp and odious conceit
 
But a tearful hymn to tug the heart
                         F#
And a man-sized wreath-ow!
 
Am
Throw it on the fire
D
Throw it in the air
Bm                                      E
Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh
Am
Look at what I’ve found
D
Everybody look around
Bm                     E
Everybody looking like they just don’t care
 
Am
Throw it on the fire
D
Throw it in the air
Bm                                      E
Kick it out on the dance-floor like you just don’t care, oh
Am   G     D
Give me some
Am   G     D
Give me some
Am   G     D
Give me some
 
 
Am   G     D

I think the lyric for Verse 2 Line 2 is: "A motorcade up Ninth Street shows the people that you care – ow!"

Great tab man, just one thing. Think it should be a C instead of an Am for the "Give me some" parts.

I agree with RVM... also, the F# seems off. Try Db7 instead... |-4-| |-6-| |-4-| |-6-| |-4-| |---| Just a thought. |
