Song 1: Right Click Scene
No capo
[Verse 1]
D
Well your bands not great
A Bm
And you've all got cheap guitars
D
And you're lining up backstage
A Bm
Using your oyster cards
[Pre-Chorus]
A G D
You could be my girl on the scene
A G D
We'd make the covers of the magazines
A G D
But I'd rather get a fork through the spleen
D
Than take you home with me
[Chorus]
A E
Right click save, oh right click save
D Bm F#m
I'll take the best of you, and toss the rest away
A E
Right click save, oh right click save
D Bm
I'm getting out of here before mistakes get made
A E D Bm
[Verse 2]
D
Well your hair's quite cool
A Bm
And you play the synthesizers well
D
But you sing out of tune
A Bm
And you've got the ego from hell
[Pre-Chorus]
A G D
You could be my girl on the scene
A G D
We'd make the covers of the magazines
A G D
But I'd rather get a fork through the spleen
D
Than take you home with me
[Chorus]
A E
Right click save, oh right click save
D Bm
I'll take the best of you, and toss the rest away
A E
Right click save, oh right click save
D Bm
Show me a bent excuse and I'll make it straight
[Bridge]
Bm F#m
Shift delete, sweet shift delete
E Bm Fm
I've got a shortcut for all eventualities
A E
Right click save, oh right click save
D Bm D
I'll take the best of you and toss the rest away. Away
A E D (Can play D Db B A as power chords to get that falling sound, works better on electric guitar)
A E
And all, that I know
D
Is that it gets harder, harder
A E
To say, to say no
D
And it gets harder, harder
A E
And all, that I know
D
Is that it gets harder, harder
A E
To right click save, oh right click save
D Bm
I'll take the best of you and toss the rest away
A
Away
Song 2: 21st Century Blues
No Capo
[Intro]
F
[Verse 1]
C Bb
Did you get that house, the one with the swimming pool?
F C Bb
The one you never shut up about
F C Bb
I heard you got that job, and the extra pay works well for you,
F C Bb C
Are you getting high and not coming down?
[Pre-chorus]
Bb Gm Bb
I need to decipher the differences bet-ween
C Gm
What I'll always want and what I'll never need
[Chorus]

I don't need your
F C Bb
I don't need your swinging moods
Dm
Your 21st Century Blu-es
F Bb
I want your hugs not your scissor ki-icks
Bb
I don't need your
F C Bb
Your broken plans or your panda eyes
Bb
Nor how to improve my social life
Dm C F Bb
If my heads in the clouds, in the clouds I'll live
F
In the clouds I'll live
[Verse 2]
C Bb G
They say you found someone with style to match their charm and wit
F C Db Bb
But are you having sex in the morning sun?
Dm Am Bb Gm
And is your head screwed tight or has success began to loosen it?
Ab Bb C
Is the tip of the ice-berg that much fun?
[Pre-chorus]
Gm Bb
Oh, help me decipher the differe-nces between
C Am Gm
What I'll always want and what I'll never need
[Chorus]
Gm
I don't need your
F C Bb
I don't need your swinging moods
Dm
Your 21st Century Blu-es
F Bb
I want your hugs not your scissor ki-icks
Bb
I don't need your
F C Bb
Your broken plans or your panda eyes
Bb
Nor how to improve my social life
Dm F Bb
If my heads in the clouds, in the clouds I'll li-ive
Gm Bb F
If my heads in the clouds, then in the clouds I'll live
[Solo]
F C Bb Gm Dm
F C Bb Gm Dm
[Chorus]
F C Bb Gm
And I don't need your swinging moods
F C Gm Dm
Your 21st Century Blues
F C Gm Bb Gm
And if nobody comes, then nothing has to leave
Dm F Bb
If my heads in the clouds, in the clouds I wanna be
[Outro]
Gm
I don't need your
Dm Bb F
If my he-ads in the clouds, then in the clouds I'll live
Song 3: Wired Differently
No Capo
[Verse 1]
C
Some like to go
F
To Tenerife for at least a week
G ( C ) F
Buy the Atoll package and flirt with strangers out at the beach
( G ) C
Some stay at home
F
And hammer their insides just because
G C
Loosen up now, honey
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm
We're a match made in hell
They're a roll of the dice
He's not coming out the closet
She'd try anything twice
[Chorus]
C ( G ) C
And nobody's perfect
F
Nobody's perfect
G ( C ) F
Though some, some people get close
C
Some people get close
[Chorus]
F
Close enough for cigars and jazz
G
I'm so far removed
F ( Dm ) ( G )
I can't see the trees for the broken plants
C
Come hop aboard
F
The tragical misery tour
G
And loosen up now, honey
[Pre-Chorus]
C Dm
Who cares if she likes the girls
Or if he likes the boys
Or why they like to judge
Or why some just use toys
[Chorus]
C ( G ) C
When nobody's perfect
F
Nobody's perfect
G ( Am ) F
Though some, some people get close
Am G C F
Some people get close
[Bridge]
Am C G C F
And I think you should know
F
I think you should know
( G ) F
That last night I drunk dialled a friend of a friend
Dm
And went smoking inside petrol stations again
C
Gets me off
G ( C )
It really gets me off
F
Now anxiety's serving us drinks at the bar
Dm
We're two treehuggers trapped in a muscle car
C
That's enough for me,
G
That's enough
G
Oh, but if that storm comes in the bottle, let's meet
F
Don't go spilling your guts out on Harley street
C G C
Cos nobody's perfect
F
Nobody's perfect
G ( C ) F C#
Though some, some people get close
CONCLUSION (SIMILAR TO CHORUS)
C
Don't tell me I'm flawed
( G )
My flaws don't deserve it
C F
Don't sell us your cures
F
We're sick and we're worth it
G ( Am ) F
I spend my life in transit though you're stationary
C G F
I guess we're all wired different---------ly
F C G
I guess we're wired different---------ly
Dm F
If you're so very clever
C G F
How come you can't see-------?
F
babe, we're wired differently
Song 4: Greek Tradgey
No Capo
[Intro]
|Abm|E|B|Ebm| (2x)
Start guitar:
|Abm|E|B|Ebm| (2x)
[Verse 1]
Abm E B
We're smashing mics in karaoke bars
Ebm
You're running late with half your make-up on
Abm E B
This method acting might pay our bills
Ebm
But soon enough they'll be a different role to fill
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Abm
I love this feeling
E
But I hate this part
B
I wanted this to work so much
F#
I drew up our plans on a chart
Abm E
Cars are flipping, I'm in hot pursuit
B Ebm
My character's strong but my head is loose
[Chorus 1]
E B Ebm
She hits like ecstasy
E Dbm
Comes up and bangs the sense out of me
|Abm|E|B|Ebm|
[Verse 2]
Abm E B
The tarot cards say its not so bad
Ebm
And the blades rotate there's just no landing pad
Abm E B
And better have said it but darling you're the best
Ebm
I'm just tired of falling up the Penrose steps
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Abm
I hate this feeling
E
But I love this part
F#
She really wants to make it work
Abm E
And I clearly want to let it start
Abm E
We'll build a water slide
B Ebm
As soon as I get home
[Chorus 2]
E B Ebm
She hits like ecstasy
E Dbm
Comes up and bangs the sense out of me
B F#
It's wrong but surely worse to leave
E B
She hits like ecstasy
Abm
So free up the cheaper seats
Abm
Here comes a Greek tragedy
[Instrumental]
|Abm|E|B|Ebm| (2x)
[Ending]
