[Intro/Inst]
 Am D/F# C G D/F# Em Am D/F# C G G/F#
[Verse 1]
AmThink me and you could maybe D/F#use a lost weekend
EmI've been lGosing all my Cfriends
AmI wave another empty D/F#bottle in your face,
EmLike I'm Ghitting it hCard
But it's just Ampretend
'cos you know I'm D/F#not
   EmI wouldn't kDnow where to sCtart
I've been there Ambefore
I went and got D/F#lost,
                                     C          G(holds G for a couple of bars -     G/F#  
Always the back end of this pantomime horse
[Verse 2]
AmAll we seem to do these days is D/F#wave our arms and yell
   EmOther Gpeople are hCell
AmAnd what's that song you're singing, D/F#everybody hurts?
  EmAnd everyGbody lieCs,
Don't wanna remAmember,
too many regD/F#rets
     EmAnd nDo cigareCttes
'cos I'm not a sAmmoker,
But I said I D/F#was
And the eClevator stuck between the Gfloors
Is geD/F#tting tEmo me ( 'Is bringing me down' ) alt
Don't let him Amforsake you                      
REmack 'em up and kDnock 'em down Cagain           
You're changing Amdirection
I won't know where I D7/F#was
The Cback end of the pantomime Ghorse
Is G/F#getting to Emme
[Chorus]
EmOoooooooh Gdelay              (lyrics? possibly odelay)
CMaestro, a G/Bdrum roll Amplease
          Am         Am/G   D( strummed with some dsus4 on the high e string ) 
This is the golden age
( Hold the D ) 
E-------2--3--------

Mid Inst/solo :- (as with start of song)   Am   D/F#   C   G   G/F#   Em   Am   D/F#   C   G   G   G/F#  
[Verse 3]                                               
AmStaring down the cD/F#orners of the room
EmAnother noGwhere tCown
AmWhen everything I sing is D/F#in a minor key
EmI have to wGrite it dCown,
Or I won't reAmmember
Then I'll get it D/F#wrong
 EmThis iDsn't the Csong,
I'm thinking I'm not the Amsinger
That I thought I D/F#was
In the Csolitude before the apGplause
Is G/F#getting to mEme
[Chorus]
EmOooo....    dGe ...lay
CMaestro G/Ba drum roAmll please
               Am/G    D.... 
This is the golden age
(Holds D chord for 2 bars, last 2 beats you play rising F# - G bass notes)
E------2--3----------
Outro (short version of intro chords) :- 
 Am   D/F#   C      GThat's It! (a nice way to end the G chord is to hammer off the high c-b notes on the b string)
Chords used   (some of them, including the more difficult ones)
     Am          D/F#      G/F#    Em        G/B
Ge ---0-----------x---------3-------0---------0
B ---1-----------3---------0-------0---------1---0 ( makes it a G chord essentially, if played open )
G ---2-----------2---------0-------0---------0
D ---2-----------0---------0-------2---------0
A ---0-----------0---------x-------2---------2
E ---x-----------2---------2-------0---------x
There are obviously a lot of articulations like hammer ons ( b-c on the b-string during Am chord as
an example.) in the song, but really you have to find your own style here or copy it faithfully but 
that's beyond the scope of this chord tab....or else I'm too lazy. How much detail d'ya want for pete's
sake?
