This is an up-tempo song that I have transferred to acoustic. The Asus4 and A alternating chords need a wah pedal to get the effect as on the record but if you play the note distinctly you can still get the overall feel. Come see me play and I'll show how exactly how it is done. Otherwise I hope the tab is helpful.
Intro chords: E D A (Asus4)
E Dsus2 A Asus4 A alternating
E-------X-X----X-X----------------0--- B-------3-3----2-2--3--2--3--2----0--- G--1-1--2-2----2-2--2--2--2--2---(1)-- D--2-2--0-0----2-2--2--2--2--2---(2)-- A--2-2---------0-0---------------(2)-- E--0-0---------------------------(0)--
For the verses just play each chord twice: EE E D D A A ffr each line.
I'm not worried it's a million miles away
Yeah I saw the news it happens every day
Some Cronkite look-alike numb from what he's reading
Wake me up wake me up it's one of us that's screaming
Chorus:
[E]Save this h-o[A]-u-s[D]-e[A]
Save this house the party's gotta end
The welcome mat's worn out & the roof'll never mend
The furniture's on fire this house is a disgrace
Someone change the locks before we trash this place
That's pretty well it.
