E B F#m
There's a light on the nineteenth floor tonight
E B F#m
They don't know there won't even be a fight
E B F#m B
But they'll find out I've tired of all the things I've called my own
E B F#m
When they go to the final mat alone
B F#m
Don't even waste the man hours on us
A B A
We are finding no solution
F#m B F#m A
Call all the boys in from the fighting fronts
B A
We have lost the revolution
F#m G F#m B
None of the soaring flight we dreamed is any closer to perfection
E F#m A B A B
And all I want is one to fold my arms around, we are throwing the election
There's a light on in Joanie's room tonight
And she won't sleep 'till summer's going right
She thought she saw something that would lead her to believe
I'm the kind who'll accept the strokes and leave
Make me an offer, I don't waste them now
We have no more fixed intentions
Give all the faithful long-deserved rests
We've abandoned our dissentions
You could be one of someone's hundreds who'll be chosen for affection
And all I want is one to fold my arms around, we are throwing the election
E B F#m A B E
I've got a feeling it's all rigged
F#m B E F#m B
I've got a feeling it ended a long time ago, nobody tells me
F#m A B
I've got a feeling it's over now
F#m A B
I've got a feeling it's over now
F#m B F#m B
I've got a feeling the votes are in and I got none
A B
And all I want is one
E B F#m E B

Tab by the Pudman (pmilenski@ocvaxa.cc.oberlin.edu)
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 GAME THEORY 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.
