This goes on for most of the song, except the chorus.
A
Wasn't the question you asked me
A
It wasn't the answer I gave
E A
That made me feel like I was on a train
A
Was a distant voice
A
Made me make the choice
E A
That I had to get the fuck out of this town
D A
'Cause I got a lot of things to do
D A
A lot of places to go
D E
I've got a lot of good things coming my way
E
And I'm afraid to say that you're not one of them.
A A E A
Last time I was there
You were out on the couch
Pressed into ellipsal electric (?)
It was the way that you smiled
Made me know at once
That I had to get the fuck out of this town
'Cause I've decide to make a stand
And I'm not gonna take your hand
I'm taking the next bus outta here, I'm gonna head for Box Elder, M.O.
A A E A (fade out)

there?
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 PAVEMENT 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.
