Here is an obscure track by the not very well known band Marillion that in spite
of sounding incredibly bad ass, has never (as far as I know) been played live by
the band (Aug 2013), and I doubt it ever will.
So what this means is that if they won't do it, we have to do it ourselves!
Here are the chords, grab your instrument and start playing!

Csus4 It was eyes down in the parlour, they prayed it wouldn't rain Ab A brother pulled his cuffs down to hide the blue-black vein Eb His razor'd more than lines out, they found him just too late Bb The final performance, the main man lies in state Csus4 With a tux on, look at him now Ab with a tux on Eb The last time with a tux on Bb take him away with a tux on Csus4 Somewhere in a tenement, in a well-thumbed magazine Ab Someone finds a photograph that triggers of a dream Eb The uniform that symbolises the comfortable life Bb He's always known his luck's in but now he's found the drive Csus4 He's got a tux on, look at him now Ab with a tux on Eb He's gonna get one with a tux on Bb free admission with a tux on Csus4 Get it anyway with a tux on Ab He's got a tux on Eb the easy way with a tux on Bb tux on End on Cm _________________________________
