D D+ Em Ddim (Ddim: 120101)
I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
D G A Bm
called the blood of the exploited working class
G - Gm -
but they've overcome their shyness - now they're calling me 'your Highness'
D / Bm G / A D A
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God
I destroyed the bond of friendship and respect
between the only people left who'd even look me in the eye
now I laugh and make a fortune off the same ones that I tortured
D / Bm G / A D B7
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God
Em A(+m9) D - (A+m9: 002320)
I look like Jesus, so they say
Em A(+m9) D -
but Mr Jesus is very far away
F# - Bm -
now you're the only one here who can tell me if it's true
G - - A
that you love me and I love me
I built a little empire out of some crazy garbage
called the blood of the exploited working class
but they've overcome their shyness - now they're calling me 'your Highness'
D / Bm G / A D B7
and a world screams: Kiss me, Son of God
G - / A D -
yes the world screams: Kiss me, Son of God
-E.M.
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 THEY MIGHT BE GIANTS 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.
