POWDERFINGER - "passenger2" Tablature
Official POWDERFINGER Tablature & Sheet Music »
This is a great song from the boys from oz... Powderfinger. Have a great
time with this song, cos it's pretty easy and sounds even better unplugged
(as heard on The Panel). I think this version is pretty much correct.
Intro
G | D/F# Bm | Em | Em | x2
VERSE
G
Caged
D/F# Bm Em
You hold so tight until your knuckles show
G
Escape
D/F# Bm Em
As far away as you could ever know
C
You sink them all down
Em
And watch them float up
Bm
Until the wheel has spun around
Em Am
You will be bound by what you are
PRE CHORUS

B-----2-------2-------3-------3------
G---3---3---3---3---4---4---4---4---- x 2

You stand in the corner
With your face stripped of colour
For what?

CHORUS
Bm G A
If you want to be a passenger
Bm G A
Climb aboard with me we’re leaving now
Bm G A
Step outside and see another world
Bm C# D A D
Only if you want to be a passenger
G
Chained
D/F# Bm Em
So many places you’d prefer to be
G
Than framed
D/F# Bm Em
By a picket fence and salary
C
You sink them all down
Em
And watch them float up
Bm
Until the wheel has spun around
Em Am
You will be bound by what you are

You’re tied to the corner
With your hope twisted under
In knots

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 POWDERFINGER 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.
