------------- Tabbed by Frederic Maquet Hello! This is quite a hard song to play, from the Texas "White on Blonde" album...I've put the easy way of playing it at the bottom, if you can't be asked playing it the hard way...it sounds pretty good too. For the Gmaj7, you'll need to use your thumb (i.e: have big hands)...if you can't reach the E bass string...just forget the bass! Enjoy....email corrections/questions/etc... to Frederic Maquet [email protected] For more Exclusive Guitar Tabs check: http://www.geocities.com/SunsetStrip/3224/guitar.html [Intro 1] (music box and strings)

[Verse 1] (play chords once, lots of echo)

  G                           Gmaj7
Bright lights city, your her religion,

                    G
Superstars in their own private movie, 

                Csus2 C
play just like children

G                                Gmaj7
Lies that take her, places she's never seen,

              G
The kiss and tell of it all, 

          Csus2  C
to her it seems so obscene

[Bridge]

         Am                    D  Dsus4 D
She's so pretty, her hair is a mess,

       Am                      Cadd9
We all love her, to that we confess

[Chorus]

                Gmaj7 G x2              D6 D x2
She has a   halo,         we really do adore her

                Am x2             Cadd9 
She has a   halo,               Can we touch her

[Verse 2] (same chords as verse 1)

           G                        Gmaj7
For  their blindness, she sees much further,

                    G
Like on the wide screen viewing,

           Csus2
Going down on her

[Bridge]

         Am                    D  Dsus4 D
She's so pretty, her hair is a mess,

       Am                      Cadd9
We all love her, to that we confess

[Chorus]

                Gmaj7 G x2              D6 D x2
She has a   halo,         we really do adore her

                Am x2             Cadd9 
She has a   halo,               Can we touch her

G                         D
She.........believes in   everything

Am                       Cadd9
Sheeehee....believes in nothing in everything

[Break] G D Am Cadd9

Sheeehee....believes in nothing in everything

G                         D

Sheeehee....believes in nothing in everything
