I have transcribed Keith's "rhythm" part and, in the guitar solo, additionally, Ronnie's part. The "3rd guitar" is an overdub for the guitar solo which I haven't transcribed. Not really sure if there are any real verses and choruses to this, so see what you make of it... This is an amazing song that was a pre-cursor to rap. Tuning is standard: EADGBE. Timing is 4/4 throughout. (The bar numbers were for my own benefit so I didn't get lost.)

LYRICS Shattered, shattered Love and hope and sex and dreams are still surviving on the street Look at me - I'm in tatters! I'm a shattered. Shattered Friends are so alarming and my lover's never charming Life's just a cocktail party - on the street Big Apple People dressed in plastic bags, directing traffic Some kind of fashion. Shattered. Laughter, joy, and loneliness and sex and sex and sex and sex Look at me - I'm in tatters I 'm a shattered. Shattered. All this chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter, chitter-chatter 'bout Shmatta, shmatta, shmatta - I can't give it away on 7th Avenue This town's been wearing tatters (shattered, shattered) Work and work for love and sex Ain't you hungry for success, success, success, success Does it matter? (Shattered) Does it matter? I'm shattered. Shattered Ahhh, look at me - I'm a shattered I'm a shattered Look at me - I'm a shattered, yeah Pride and joy and greed and sex. That's what makes our town the best! Pride and joy and dirty dreams and still surviving on the street And look at me - I'm in tatters, yeah I've been battered, what does it matter Does it matter, uh-huh Does it matter, uh-huh, I'm shattered Don't you know the crime rate is going up, up, up, up, up! To live in this town you must be tough, tough, tough, tough, tough! You got rats on the west side, bed bugs uptown What a mess, this town's in tatters! I've been shattered My brain's been battered - splattered - all over Manhattan Uh-huh, This town's full of money grabbers Go ahead, bite the Big Apple! Don't mind the maggots, huh Shadoobie. My brain's been battered My friends they come around they Flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter, flatter! Pile it up, pile it high on the platter!
