(riff 1) C G
Come see the vampires of New York, a-ah
(riff 1) C G
Come lose your mind in Central Park, a-ah
C G
But don't leave your soul behind, a-ah
(riff 1) C G
Come take in 8th street after dark, a-ah
(riff 1) C G
Such peculiar people you'll remark, a-ah
C G
You might even see a murder, a-ah
F G
And all the whores on Bleecker Street
C
They wear the blissful grin
F G
Caused by the drugs they take
C G
To relieve them of their sins, ah-oh
C Am G
And "Oh-oh lord I think she's dying"
C Am G
I heard somebody say, I think she's dying
C Am G
And "Oh, oh lord I think she's dying"
(riff 1) C
Or, maybe she's already dead
G
and maybe she's gone to Mars.
C
Maybe we could even write her epitaph
G
in the stars.
C G
It'd say "If you go away from here...
C G
if you go a million miles..."
F C G
Come downtown
F C G
to see them go
(riff 1) C G
Into the den of the vampires of New York ha-hah
But please watch your step as you're
C
getting off kids.
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.
