 Chords: , , ,

Verse 1

(continue intro chords w/cello riff- Neko)

  The skirts go up, before the wall among the madding crowds,

  They ruin, Like the rest of ruin, the rest of us ruin

  You are a living doll riding the circle tracks behind the walls of clocks,

  In your ruin, Like the rest of ruin, the rest of us ruin

Chorus 1

(open strumming on power chords, no cello, Neko with Carl)

  Traffic will slow for the crash years

  There's no other show like it 'round here, as a ruuuule

  Windows will roll for the crash years

  There's no other show like it 'round here, as a ruuuule

After chorus chords: (with whistle) (x1)

Repeat intro chords and cello riff (x1) (electric played in background)

Verse 2

(played same as before)

  Now the candle's end, you are a light turned low and like the rest of us,

  You've got those old, eternity blues, eternity blues

  Your fingers raised, you're looking for the word, what you want is accident

  And not the drag, spectacular view, what you can lose

Chorus 2

  Traffic will slow for the crash years

  There's no other show like it 'round here, as a ruuuule

  Windows will close in the crash years

Honey child, you're not safe here, as a ruuuule

After chorus chords: (with whistle) (x1)

Bridge chord

no vocal):

Solo chords

(same as intro, with cello riff)

Chorus 3

  Traffic will slow for the crash years

  There's no other show like it 'round here, as a ruuuule

  Windows will roll for the crash years

After chorus chords: (with whistle) (x2)

Intro riff with cello (x1)

Outro verse

(x6) (after third repeat, instruments fade, voices on last refrain)

  And the ruins the wild, the ruins the wild, tonight will be an open mic.

End on an F chord.
