Tuning: eBGDAE (Standard)
First tab, so bear with me on spacing, formatting, etc. Hopefully the notes are right!
Intro is mostly the piano, but you could easily accent it some with these chord shapes. "New York I love you,..." ..."down."e|-1----------------------------5-----------4--------------------------------|B|-1----------------------------6-----------6--------------------------------|G|-2----------------------------7-----------6--------------------------------|D|-3----------------------------7-----------6--------------------------------|A|-3----------------------------5-----------4--------------------------------|E|-1-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(Just before the line "New York you're safer...")e|-1----------------------------5-----------4-----------------8--------------|B|-1----------------------------6-----------6-----------------10-------------|G|-2----------------------------7-----------6-----------------10-------------|D|-3----------------------------7-----------6-----------------10-------------|A|-3----------------------------5-----------4--------4--6--7--8--------------|E|-1-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Continue this general pattern, throwing these variations as desired.
e|-1---------------5-----------4---------------------------------------------|B|-1---------------6-----------6---------------------------------------------|G|-2---------------7-----------6---------------------------------------------|D|-3---------------7-----------6---------------------------------------------|A|-3---------------5--5--8~-5--4--4--6--7--8~--------------------------------|E|-1-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Riff in the background from time to time.
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|---/7~~-7--5--3-/6~-6--5--3--3~~~~~----------------------------------------|D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
(Starting at "Oh, take me off your mailing lists...", Murphy starts a little solo thing
in the background)
e|---------------------------------------------------------------|B|-----------------------------------------------------------10~-|G|-10~--10~--10~--10~--10~--10~--10~--10-12b-10-12-10-12b--------|D|---------------------------------------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|B|-10-10-10-10-10---------------------------------------------------10~-|G|-----------------12-12-10h12-10~~---10-12-10-12b------pb12br-10-------|D|----------------------------------------------------------------------|A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---10--10--10--10b-10h11p10-------------------------------------------|G|------------------------------10-12~------10-12-12b~-pb12br-10--------|D|----------------------------------------------------------------12-10-|A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10--10---|G|--------------------10-12-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b-12b---|D|-10--10--10--10-12----------------------------------------------------------|A|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------------|
As Murphy shouts "Oh!", I like to accent the piano chord "crashes" I guess with this
note and variations on the picking of it, fading off back into the same chords used earlier
in the song.
e|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|-10--10--10-10-10-10~~~----------------------------------------------------|D|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|A|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|---------------------------------------------------------------------------|
Now the real solo. Most of these notes are right, or at least they'll put your fingers
in the right area.
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------------------------------|G|-10(tremelo picked for a while)--10-12-10-12b~~-pb12~-10-12b-10-10-|D|-------------------------------------------------------------------|A|-------------------------------------------------------------------|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|----------------------------------------------------------------------|B|-10-10-10-10-10-10-10(tremelo)-10-10-10-------------------------------|G|----------------------------------------10(tremelo)---------10--------|D|--------------------------------------------------12~~-12----12-11~~--|A|----------------------------------------------------------------------|E|----------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|-----------------------10~~~-10-10-10-11b-11b-11b-11b-11b-11b-11b-11b-10-|D|-11-12-11-10~~~-10-10----------------------------------------------------|A|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|-------------------------------------------------------------------------|
e|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|B|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|G|---------------------------------10---------------------------------------|D|-12-10------10-10-12-10-12~~-12----12-11~~~--11--12----11(sustain)\10-----|A|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|E|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|
After the music fades and comes back, it's the same chords, but in this kind of
sound/strum pattern.
e|-------8----------------8---------------5-------------4--------|B|-------10---------------10--------------6-------------6--------|G|-------10---------------10--------------7-------------6--------| REPEAT TO ENDD|-------10---------------10--------------7-------------6--------|A|-8~------------8~----------------5~------------4~-----4--6--7--|E|---------------------------------------------------------------|
And end on the 8th fret, A string. Let it ring.
Again, first tab, so be kind. Hopefully this at least puts you in the same ballpark. Cheers!
