The intro is echos, pickscrapes and really weird bends.
Play around with those and see what you get
Then play this:
(guess)
RIFF A
e-------|
B-------|
G-------|
D-3-5-0-|
A-3-5-0-|
D-3-5-0-| X3
Here's what I think the chorus is:
CHORUS
e------------------------------------------------------|

Here's my take on the next part:

B-----------------------------|
G-----------------------------|
D-5-7-3-5-1-3---5-7-3-5-3-5-0-|
A-----------------------3-5-0-|
D-----------------------3-5-0-|
I think Paul plays that a bit differently
in the 3 times he plays it but that's the basics.
Again the chorus and opening riff afterwards.
Voila, you have yourself somewhat of a pakafyst.
LYRICS:
Shot down! Shot down!
Far gone you walk along a long road
Stole from a dream the story you told
Preacher's on the TV preachin 'bout the enemy
Only show that's on is hypocrisy
You wash your hands clean
And spread a message of war
You seed the disease
Somehow reaping the cure
Now your delusion, Grows bigger
You're the target, I'm on the trigger
Shot down! Shot down!
Far gone you walk along a long road
Stealing the scene with lies that you told
Mother's on the TV cryin' for her family
Machine gun cornerstone for a democrasy
You wash your hands clean
And spread a message of war
You seed the disease
Somehow reaping the cure
Now your delusion, Grows bigger
You're the target, I'm on the trigger
Retaliation
Submission
Retaliation
Indecision
Retaliation
Submission
Escalation
A fall to arms
You wash your hands clean
And spread a message of war
You seed the disease
Somehow reaping the cure
Now your delusion, Grows bigger
You're the target, I'm on the trigger
Shot down! Shot down!
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 TALLMAN 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.
