This song pretty much follows a blues format.. The main riff is in E and the variation
A and such.
The strumming isn't very difficult to figure out.
Palm mute the E string on the open notes.
Feel free to email me with any questions.

1
The Eiffel Tower built to smaller scale, the freshest oxygen I’d ever inhale
2
1
I tapped a bottle against the safety rail, killing time
1
And you were like a walking compliment
1
Tall in stature and exceptionally read
2
In dummy glasses and a cardigan
1
Oh come on
3 1
And oh so empty were the faces Of the dealers and the waitresses around
1
You said that all these things you’ve learned to ignore
1
The hidden cameras on the casino floor
2
And what gets paid for behind hotel doors
1
Oh come on
3 1
Pretend every slot machine is a robot amputee waving hello
3
The people stare into their eyes and they feed them little bribes
1
And then they go
4
The never ending twilight in a basement where the sun has never spilt
You said you were lonely
And then we kissed like lonely people do
1
You said this city has a beating heart that pushes people down the boulevard
1
And they’re all hoping for a wish fulfilled in a desert for a dollar bill
2
Those foolish dreams you know they plague me still
1
Oh come on
3
And oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around
1
3
And oh so empty were the faces of the dealers and the waitresses around
5
Empty.
