Like tin angels falling

Verse 2:
Seize
All the records from the
Past
Hold for ransom all the
Artifacts
This ragged town protects
Them to the last
With lies, lies
Verse 3:
Deem
All the liars in your tribe
To be the fires on the
Western side
of some old front we call
the war of art
Verse 1 again with the last two lines repeated three times.

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 MARCY PLAYGROUND 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.
