Verse:
------    
           E
    You're talking like you've never seen the 

       light... etc.               
   e¦¦---------------¦
   B¦¦-----3--3-3-3--¦
   G¦¦--1--1--1-1-1--¦ x3   I think there's about 3 guitars here, 
   D¦¦--2--2--2-2-2--¦     each doing this or variations of the main riff

              C#5                           B5
     But I've never seen you dance and I've never heard you sing

        G#5
     So how could it mean a... 

     ...single thing?

 Main riff + another verse

Chorus:
-------
              E     G#m
      Tell me baby, how does it feel? 
        C#m                             A       G#m
      I know you like the roll of the limousine wheel
     
      E                        G#m
         And they all get them out 
      A                      B
         For the boys in the band
      E                        G#m
         They scream and they shout 
      A                      B       
         For the boys in the band
