[Intro] G - A

[Verses] are just Bm and Em. (With G and F#m as additional chords.)

Bm
I'd like to drop my trousers to the world
Em G F#m
I am a man of means (of slender means)
Bm
Each household appliance
Em G F#m
Is like a new science in my town
Bm
And if the day came when I felt a
natural emotion
Em G
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump
F#m
In the ocean

The 'And when a train goes by'-part is A-Bm-G (It's important you actually must play
string apart, that part)

A
And when a train goes by
Bm
It's such a sad sound
G
No ...
A Bm G
It's such a sad thing

G - F#m (You can also play this :

| G- 4- -2-Bend |
| D- 5- -4-Bend |
| A- 5- -4-Bend |
[ ] )

[Intro] (G - A)

Bm
I'd like to drop my trousers to the Queen
Em G F#m
Every sensible child will know what this means
Bm
The poor and the needy
Em G F#m
Are selfish and greedy on her terms
Bm
And if the day came when I felt a
natural emotion
Em G
I'd get such a shock I'd probably jump
F#m
In the ocean

A
And when a train goes by
Bm
It's such a sad sound
G
No ...
A Bm G
It's such a sad thing

[Instrumental bridge]
F#m G
G - F#m (Bend)

[Intro] G - A

Bm
And when I'm lying in my bed
Em
I think about life
G F#m
And I think about death
Bm Em G F#m
And neither one particularly appeals to me

Bm
And if the day came when I felt a
natural emotion
Em G F#m
I'd get such a shock I'd probably lie
Em G F#m
In the middle of the street and die
Em G F#m Bm
I'd lie down and die ...
A Em
Oh, oh

I saw this video on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FtKxmynpy4
You can see he plays a F#m through the Bm's in the verses.

But this tab is more like a guideline. Hope you enjoy it.
