No attempt at strumming pattern or timing or whatever. Its all very
easy to pick up listening to the album, which if you dont have yet, you
should buy to support great Canadian music (and because it's a wicked album).
Intro:
(air raid siren, and the bass repeating a 'B')
B E AA B E BB B E AA B E BB B B
verse:
B D A FF ( repeated)
All you found, is another back door,
and no one sees, a reason for,
at the heart of a travelling band,
you have to understand
that what's driving me,
is the yellow line.
chorus:
EEE BB
and the joke is,
DDD AA
when he awoke he
GG F# E
thought he was covered in coke fizz
verse:
hey you -
you've been around for awhile.
if you'll admit that you were wrong
then we'll admit that we're right.
hey you -
come along for the ride
we'll hit the money city
if it takes us all night
chorus.
bridge and solo
B E A E A E
A D G D G D
(alternate and repeat)
verse: (clapping, no guitar)
hey you -
you've been around for awhile.
if you'll admit that you were wrong
then we'll admit that we're right.
you take the heart of a travelling band,
you'll never understand
that all they know,
is the yellow line.
guitar in, chorus to end.

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 SLOAN 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.
