Long Live The Queen


Hey, I wasnt really happy with the other version, Please rate, this is my first tab. Verse: Listen to a youtube video to learn the pattern. Also, try to keep the top B and E string open when strumming, sounds better :) For the Chorus: Aadd9 - 077600 F#m x44200 Bmadd11 099700 E7 020100 or 076700 D xx0230 E 022100 A I was sipping on a Whiskey when I got the call F#m Yeah my friend Lex was lying in the hospital Bm She'd been pretty sick for about half a year E But it seems liked this time the end was drawing near A So dropped my plans and jumped the next London train F#m I found her laid up and in a lot of pain Bm Her eyes met mine and then I understood E E7 That the weather forecast wasn't looking too good A So I sat and spun her stories for a little while F#m Tried to raise her mood and tried to raise a smile Bm Bm But she silenced all my rambling with a shake of her head E E7 Drew me close and listen this is what she said now Aadd9 F#m Bmadd11 "You'll live to dance another day, E7 it's just now you'll have to dance, for the two of us, Aadd9 F#m Bmadd11 so stop looking so damn depressed D and sing with all your heart E that the Queen is dead" A Yeah she told me she was sick of all the hospital food F#m And of doctors, distant relatives, draining her blood Bm She said "I know I'm dying, but I'm not finished just yet, E E7 I am dying for a drink and for a cigarette" A So we hatched a plan to book ourselves a cheap hotel F#m In the centre of the City and to raise some Hell Bm Bm E Lay waste to all the clubs and then when everyone else is long asleep E7 We know we're good and done Aadd9 F#m Bmadd11 "You'll live to dance another day, E7 it's just now you'll have to dance, for the two of us, Aadd9 F#m Bmadd11 so stop looking so damn depressed D and sing with all your heart E D F#m E that the Queen is dead__________ D F#m E And South London's not the same anymore D F#m E The Queen is dead, D F#m E and the last of the great has finally gone to bed A Well I was working on some words when Sarah called me up F#m She said that Lex had gone asleep and wasn't waking up Bm And even though I knew that there was nothing to be done E E7 I felt bad for not being there and now, well, she was gone A So I tried to think what Lex would want me to do F#m At times like this when I was feeling blue Bm So I gathered up some friends to spread the sad sad news E E7 And we headed to the City for a drink or two And we sang Aadd9 F#m Bmadd11 "You'll live to dance another day, E7 it's just now you'll have to dance, for the two of us, Aadd9 F#m Bmadd11 so stop looking so damn depressed D and sing with all your heart E D long live the Queen"
