copyright 1998, murderecords, written by Sloan

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.

which is played normally
