Somebody Got Murdered

From: * (Peter Palmer)
Album: Sandinista
Lyrics c/o uwp
Chords:   It sounds like there are two guitars and they
          mix up the fingering from lower to higher.  Here are
          the two positions where they alternate.

Intro:  The song starts with a muffled barred E  keeping beat
        with the snare.  Then, the other guitar comes in with:

        Then they get into heavy chords as follows:
        (played in the higher position sounds best)
E        C#m          A
E        F#m          A
Verses:
E                A   E
Someone lights a cigarette
      A      E    F#m
While riding in a car
E            A       E
Some ol' guy takes a swig
    A      E        F#m
And passes back the jar
B                   A    E
But where they were last night
A      E   F#m
No-one can remember
C#m          A
Somebody got murdered
     B               E
Goodbye, for keeps, forever
E        C#m       A
Somebody       got murdered
E         F#m        A
Somebody's      dead forever
And you're minding your own business
Carrying spare change
You wouldn't cosh a barber
You're hungry all the same
I been very tempted
To grab it from the till
I been very hungry
But not enough to kill
Somebody got murdered
His name cannot be found
A small stain on the pavement
They'll scrub it off the ground
As the daily crown disperse
No-one says that much
Somebody got murdered
And it' left me with a touch
Somebody got murdered
Somebody's dead forever
/*
Now play the intro riff above these words:
*/
Sounds like murder!
Those shouts!
Are they drunk down below?
It's late, and my watch stopped
Some time ago
Sounds like murder!
Those screams!
Are they drunk down below?
