This is the bare bones of the song very simple and straight. The main riff
is the only pain. It comes with a little practice but is easy once you get
that fluid sound that Steve uses.
Lyrics
This is not the first time - you tried to get away.
This is not a party - where people know your name.
This is not a classroom - with teacher at the board.
This is not a cat show - with prizes at the door.
|Chorus|
Go - Don't you go.
Won't you stay with me one more day.
If we get through one more night.
If we get through one more night.
This is not a horse race - where winner beats the time.
This is not a funeral - with mourners in a line.
This is not a sitcom - where everything's alright.
This is not a prison - with terror through the night.
|Chorus|
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 OINGO BOINGO 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.
