Intro and verses:
-----------------

Here are the chords on a guitar :
Ab, D#7M, Bb
4      3   6
4      3   6
5      3   7
6      5   8
6      6   8
4      x   6

Ab            D#7M
  I'm feeling so alone now
Ab             D#7M
  They cut the telephone uh huh
Ab        D#7M               Ab Bb
  Yeah my life is just a mess

Ab           D#7M
  I threw it all away now
Ab             D#7M
  I could have made a fortune
Ab           D#7M           Ab  Bb
  I lost the craving for success


Bridge:
-------

The bridge differs a bit because D# is played instead of D#7M two times.
Eb

          Ab             Eb
And as the acrobats they tumble
       Ab             D#7M
So the corn begins to crumble
             Ab
While in the mirror
      Eb               Bb
She admires a brand new dress


Second verse:
-------------

Ab            D#7M
  Live on the second floor now
Ab                  D#7M
  They're trying to bust the door down
Ab          D#7M              Ab Bb
  Soon I'll have a new address

Ab            D#7M
  So much for liberation
Ab               D#7M
  They'll have a celebration
Ab               D#7M           Ab    Bb
  Yeah I've been under too much stress


Bridge:
-------

           Ab             Eb
And as the cloud begin to rumble
       Ab                D#7M
So the juggler makes his fumble
        Ab          Eb             Bb
And the sun upon my wall is getting less


Chorus:
-------

The chorus includes new chords:
Fm7, C#, Bbm, Fm, Gm
  1   4    1   1   3
  1   6    2   1   3
  1   6    3   1   3
  1   6    3   3   5
  3   4    1   3   5
  1   x    x   1   5

Ab     Fm7
Don't, give a damn
Ab     Fm7
Fight, while you can
C#    Bbm
Kill, shoot 'em up
C#      Bbm
They'll run amuck
Ab     Fm7
Shout, Judas
Ab            Fm7
Loud, they'll hear us
C#       Bbm
Soldier, sailor
C#         Bbm
Who's your tailor
Fm                   Gm
They'll run for cover when they discover
Ab                    Bb
Everyone's a nervous wreck now


Guitar solo:
------------

Guitar gets in thanks to a 2/4 bar and the solo is done over the verses chords. I wish I 
provide a nice tab but Guitar Pro bugs with the export :(


Bridge:
-------

The guitar solo continues while the bridge is sung.

          Ab               Eb
I used to think she was so nimble
        Ab                 D#7M
I would have bought her as symbol
        Ab                 Eb             Bb
But now I can't afford the pen to sign her checks


Chorus:
-------

Ab     Fm7
Don't, give a damn
Ab     Fm7
Fight, while you can
C#    Bbm
Kill, shoot 'em up
C#      Bbm
They'll run amuck
Ab     Fm7
Shout, Judas
Ab            Fm7
Loud, they'll hear us
C#       Bbm
Soldier, sailor
C#         Bbm
Who's your tailor
Fm                   Gm
They'll run for cover when they discover
Ab                    Bb
Everyone's a nervous wreck now


Outro:
------

A little jam over the last chords.

Fm                  Gm
Life's just a bummer they got your number
Ab                         Bb
  We'll give as good as we get now
Fm                  Gm
Rise from the gutter, stick with each other
Ab                         Bb
  We'll drive 'em over the edge now
Fm                   Gm
  They're gonna bleed, that's what they need
Ab                       Bb
  We'll get together and blow their cover

We're ready
Yeah we're ready
Yeah we're ready
