Well I just got back and I wish I never leave now (Where'd ya go?)
E A B
Who dat Martian arrival over at the airport, yeah?
E A B
How many local dollars for a local anesthetic?
E A B
The johnny on the corner was-a very sympathetic
Chorus:
F#m C#
I went to the place where every white face
A B
is an invitation to robbery
F#m C# A
An' sitting here in my safe european home
B E
Don't wanna go back there again
[with above verse progression]
Wasn't I lucky and wouldn't it be loverly?
Send us all cards, have a laying in on Sunday.
I was there for two weeks, so how come I never tell now?
That natty dread drink in the Sheraton Hotel, yeah.
[Chorus again]
1st break: G#m A E F#m B A B A G#m A (B) E
Oh-oh Oh-oh Oooh-Oh
[verse progression again]
They got the sun, they got the palm trees
They got the weed, they got the taxis.
Whoa, the harder they come, the home of ol' Blue Beat.
I'd stay and be a tourist, but I can't take the gun play.
[Chorus again]

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official CLASH tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
