By Tom McRae

Chords:
(T=10th fret)

C- T90xxx
F- 540xxx

Now it's essentially just these 3 chords over and over again... normally adopting this
strum pattern... all quick downstrums by the way and notice the hammering on to create
a sus4 effect... very important that you nail it

Occasionally Tom changes the strumming, plays more notes of the chords 'n' stuff but
listen to the record for that banter...

C                 F                     F                     C
Light me a smoke, I'll tell you a story of how the West was won

                    F                   F                      C
Flew over diamonds, east river shining, a city sinking in the mud

                 F                   F                    C
And in a second, a life-long second, I knew what we'd become

                           F                          F                             C
We use up people, use up time, use up places say goodbye searching for the crowded hour

                              F                                  F                C
Now there's a buzzing in the wires, look for lightening in your eyes and I see it there


...and it's just that. For 6 minutes. Any banter (although please none of the historical
