INTRO:
Notes:
Guitar Figure 1 reflects the recording, but if you're busking this, you might
want to beef it up a bit e.g. play 5ths instead of the bass notes. See what
you think. It's just a suggestion... 

[play:  Guitar Figure 1]

VERSE:
Notes:
This little fill is not on the recording but sounds quite cool, as a
transition to C on the following line, if you were thinking of busking this.
Just a thought...

G        Bm             Em           Em7  [fill 1]
  Do you have enough to fill a page?
C          G                  Bbdim  D7
  Is there something I should rea  - ead?
G      Bm              Em          Em7    [fill 1]
  Amplifiers broke the news today,
C       G              Bbdim  D7
  I was whispering the de  -  tails

When the world came in, I've seen it before,
        Em         A7
Wearing shimmering clothes
       D               D/C
Is the world worth its spending?
        D           D7/A           G
Is that world worth me   defending it?


CHORUS:
Notes:
* Guitar Figure 2 is played at the end of the last line.
If you're a solo guitar, you should just play the chords.
These are Am, Bm, C and D, but play these variations instead:

Am       x02210
Bm7add11 x04430
C        x32010
Dadd9    x54030

The tab is what another guitar would play.

If investigation fails, I'm on my own

You are changing thi - ings
     D             D/C
