The Marquee and the Moon - Sloan

Tabbed by Dan Misener (curly_d@email.com)

Hey folks. I wanted to be the first to tab out at least one of the new songs
from Between the Bridges, so here it is. The lyrics should be all right, I
lifted them from www.murderecords.com.

And yes, I realize that this is a piano song, but play around with it, you
can probably do a nice acoustic version or something.

Throughout the song, a guitar plays these two notes over and over:

e|----5---5--|
B|--3---3----|
G|-----------|
D|-----------|
A|-----------|
E|-----------|

Intro: Bm  A

D
Cabaret license I haven't been by since

It goes against all that I've learned
       G                          D
But it seems that the tables have turned

    D
But could we have stopped it

We all get co-opted

To some kind of system it seems
         G
But they can't take away
Em                      D
can't take away all our dreams

         G                     D
Like the one where I'm in a balloon
G                    Em                      D
Floating above I can see The Marquee and the Moon
    Bm          A          G
The monkey, the dog and Neptune

        D
They're all in good spirits

I'm happy to hear it

But haven't the sweetest idea
      Em             D
To me buzz is onamatapea

     G                      D
Will something be happening soon
   G                        Em                       D
To settle the difference between The Marquee and the Moon
        Bm          A                G
They're passing the torch, knife and spoon

D            Em                     F#m
   And so it goes I guess there are those
                G        D   Em   F#m   G
Who want to get out like meeeeeeeeeeeeeee
D             Em             F#m
   Their clientele Can go to hell
                    G      D
If they want to get in for freeeeeeeeeeeeee

    G                        D
But hell aint a bad place to be
   G                    Em                    D
Am I any different than either The Moon or Marquee
    Bm        A          Em             A
I'm not a lot if you ask meeeeeeeeeeeeeee

(Drums and stuff)

D
Cabaret license I've been coming by since

The action continued past two
       G
Before this what did we
Em                     D
   What did we used to do

Outro: Bm  A  G
